As my Department was established in its present form in 2007, the identification of records prior to January 2007 cannot be facilitated without undue commitment of staff resources and administrative cost. However, if the Deputy has a question in relation to a specific item I will make appropriate enquiries.

In the time available, it has not been possible to prepare a complete schedule of the material sought in relation to the period since the establishment of my Department. I have directed that this be completed as soon as possible and forwarded to the Deputy thereafter.
