Hi Judy,
Firstly, big thanks to you and Jeff for the prompt response.
I'm happy to take documents as they become available and also to negotiate the scope of the request if that would help facilitate the delivery of documents in a more expedient manner.
I'm aware that "reasonable time" is not defined in the APRA or by the courts, as it is a standard which is addressed on
a case-by-case basis, but do you have any sense of timeline as to when these documents might be made available, or how I can effectively narrow the scope of the request to make your jobs fulfilling the statutory obligation easier?
Looking forward to your anticipated assistance.
Best,
Russel Neiss
