The ATO released 30 documents in part following an FOI request for all-staff emails from the Commissioner between November 2024 and April 2025, particularly one allegedly containing a cartoon depicting a "Collingwood fan" action figure with derogatory characteristics. The decision grants partial access to all 30 identified documents with redactions applied under section 22 of the FOI Act. Exempt material was removed pursuant to section 47E(d), which protects information that could adversely affect agency operations, specifically internal ATO mailbox details and names of non-Senior Executive Service staff members. The ATO confirmed it conducted a reasonable search of relevant business systems through its Digital Experience division. Released documents are available on the ATO Disclosure Log via the ATO Publication Ordering Site.
