The Hon John Howard MP
Prime Minister
Parliament House
CANBERRA 2600

Dear Prime Minister

Here is my annual report, as required by section 35 of the Inspector-General of Intelligence and Security Act 1986. The report covers the period between 1 July 2002 and 30 June 2003.

The report has been prepared in compliance with the Requirements for Annual Reports issued by the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet in July 2003, to the extent that compliance is sensible for an office of our small size.

I have consulted with all of the agencies I oversee each of whom share my view that the report is suitable for tabling in Parliament.

Yours sincerely

W.J. Blick signature
