FOI request

• meeting agenda, notes or minute documents for any meetings where the Australian Information Commissioner (past or current), the Freedom of Information Commissioner (past or current) and the Privacy Commissioner (past or current) are all invitees or attendees; and
• the meeting occurred during the period January 2024 to current; and
• the document notes the creation of a principal director role/s in the proposed draft future organisational structure of the OAIC, including but not limited to:
• any discussion of the ATO, or any other APS agency recently removing their el2.2 (higher level el2) positions from their enterprise agreements and consideration of this
• any consultation with the APSC that endorsed the idea to create two levels of EL2 within the agency despite this being outside the ILS published by the APSC
• why 3 principal director roles were created specifically
• the proposed salary or salary range of principal directors and why this sits outside of the current OAIC enterprise agreement
• why the 3 principal director roles align to the skillets of the 3 current acting SES band 1 employees within the OAIC
• whether the principal director roles were created to avoid redundancy or displacement of current acting SES band 1 employees rather than in reflection of what is genuinely good use of public funds.
