The document published on the Office of the Information Commissioner (OIC) website is missing some text from one page to the next (ex. page 3 to 4, page 5 to 6, page 6 to 7, page 8 to 9, etc.); The statistics on complaints registered by the OIC in 2021-22 broken down by federal institution. I cannot find the breakdown of complaints registered by the OIC about the refusal of access to information by federal department or institution, in the annual report.
