Checklist of subject areas covered in hand-overs between Prime Minister and Acting Prime Minister

Julie Fairey made this Official Information Act request to Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet

Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet did not have the information requested.

From: Julie Fairey

23 October 2012

Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,

I am requesting a copy of the standard checklist (which may not be
referred to as a checklist) used to ensure an effective and
comprehensive hand over between the Prime Minister and an Acting
Prime Minister, and vice versa, when the Prime Minister is about to
go overseas, and when the Prime Minister returns from overseas.

I am after the standing items on this list which are always
discussed, even if it is to report that there is nothing to
discuss.

Yours faithfully,

Julie Fairey

It appears that they do not have the information as it does not exist, i.e. that there is no standard handover structure!
