Joined FYI in 2013
Happy to assist requesters in composing their OIA requests to make them clear and intelligible to agencies. And an interest in assisting requesters on how best they can get the information they need.
Also interested in:
- organisations' internal processes, procedures, and practices, for dealing with the processing, handling and refusal of OIA requests.
- the existence of any legal tests to fulfil the statutory withholding provisions.

It seems you may not be entirely getting the information you seek because your request was ill-defined to begin with.
Censorship
Awaiting classification.
Your request is not very well scoped. The first and last legs of your request is very wide because it asks for "all". And the first leg asks for curren...

If the legal opinion is assessed for release it will be interesting to see if this is withheld.
