Draft a response pack for an OAIC investigation

Key facts

Human involvement
RedLawyer-led
How AI is used
From the OAIC’s notice, schedule every question, document category and due date it sets, and index the file’s documents, system logs and policy versions against each item, flagging what is missing and what may be privileged. The tool writes no part of the response to the OAIC: no draft, no first draft, no skeleton, no outline, no suggested paragraphs. Once the lawyer has written the submission, check it against the notice question by question and list every assertion the file does not support.
What the lawyer must review
  • Draft and sign everything that goes to the OAIC yourself
  • Verify every citation
  • Do not admit a serious interference (s 13)
  • Check privilege (Optus v Robertson; McClure v Medibank [2025] FCA 167) and 2024 Act powers
  • Use ACL (No 2) [2025] FCA 1224, $5.8m, as the penalty anchor
