This FOI disclosure comprises internal Home Affairs correspondence from July 2025 regarding media enquiries about the 2023-24 organisational chart. A federal political reporter asked whether Home Affairs deliberately removed the chart from public accessibility following a National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) finding that identified a former Home Affairs employee engaged in "serious corruption" through Operation Kingscliff. The chart had apparently been easily discoverable via Google search but became accessible only through Internet archives by the enquiry date. Home Affairs Media sought internal clearance on how to respond to specific questions about whether steps were taken to reduce the document's accessibility, when such action occurred, and whether it was intended to preserve the effectiveness of pseudonyms used in the NACC report. The disclosure shows internal coordination between media, operational, and ministerial office personnel regarding the response strategy, though the actual substantive response to the journalist's questions is not included in the excerpt.
