The team has received and acknowledged your request regarding a Coroners
Court case from 2021.

 

The ID number for this is CAR 111156, with a due date of 6 May 2024.

 

A CAR is a Coroners Act Request, the Coronial equivalent of an OIA.  The
only difference is that, unlike OIA requests, there is no required
timeframe in which a response must be provided, but we will try to have a
response to you on or before 6 May.
