The Attorney-General's Department released a media coordination email and communications pack relating to government handling of the Robodebt Royal Commission response between October-November 2023. The documents show inter-departmental coordination between AGD, Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet, Department of Social Services, and Services Australia on media strategy. A "Government Response to Robodebt Stakeholder Pack" was circulated containing media protocol and talking points, with revised versions planned. The materials were embargoed pending parliamentary tabling of the government response. Extensive redactions under section 22(1) (personal information) obscured sender and recipient identities, while section 47E(d) redaction appears to withhold other exempt content. The documents demonstrate coordinated public communications management but substantive details of the government's response to royal commission recommendations remain largely obscured by redactions.
