When is the deadline for furnishing a statement of reasons on request under the ad(jr) act?
The catalogue records a 28 days period from Receipt of the request for a statement of reasons. This draft page remains free only until its source, worked example and limits are reviewed.
Source link required
This page is in preparation. It does not offer an automated deadline or a paid record until the missing source or calculator evidence is complete.
In preparation
The existing catalogue does not yet have a registered adapter or source evidence for this exact question. It remains available as a public preparation page only.
Example pending review
A separately reviewed fixture is required before this question can become indexable. The page does not present an unreviewed output as an example.
Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 28 days
- Trigger
- Receipt of the request for a statement of reasons
- Counting
- The encoded calculator method must be independently documented before publication.
- Rollovers and holidays
- Holiday, closure and order treatment must be independently documented before publication.
This route remains in preparation until a pinpoint official source is recorded.
- No general extension power in s 13(2) itself; the decision-maker may within the same 28 days give notice of an opinion that the requester was not entitled to make the request, or apply to the Court under s 13(4A) for a declaration to that effect (s 13(3)).
- Obligation on the decision-maker, not the applicant, but it controls the AD(JR) s 11(3)(b)(ii) trigger and therefore the review deadline. Counted under Acts Interpretation Act 1901 (Cth) s 36; FCR r 1.61 does not apply. Related exclusions from the obligation are in ss 13A and 14.
