The Attorney-General's Department released internal correspondence regarding a meeting request from News Corp Australia under section 47F(1) of unspecified legislation. Between June and July 2025, departmental officials including Jenna Priestly (Assistant Secretary, Commercial and Copyright Law Branch) coordinated with the Attorney-General's Office to prepare briefing materials for a scheduled meeting on 16 July 2025. The exchanges reference a meeting brief (MB25-000096) and indicate advice was being sought from the Attorney-General's Office on how to handle the meeting request. Extensive redactions under section 22(1) (personal privacy) obscure the substantive details of the correspondence, including identities of most participants, contact information, and the underlying legal matter or specific section 47F(1) provision at issue. The documents demonstrate standard departmental processing of external meeting requests but provide limited disclosure of the actual content or legal issues involved.
