Dear Ms Roberts

Re: Temporary
Exemption Application - Catholic Education Office, Archdiocese of Sydney
in relation to Proposed Scholarships for Male Trainee Teachers

I refer to the above
application made on 30 August 2002 for an exemption from section 21 (2)
(a) of the Sex Discrimination Act ("the Act").

In order to anticipate
other potential claims, the Catholic Education Office ("CEO")
also wishes to seek an exemption from section 22 (1) of the Act. This
additional application is made in the same basis as outlined in the original
letter of 30 August.

Do not hesitate to
contact me should you require additional information or clarification
on any aspects of this matter.

Yours sincerely

Greg McKay

Employment Relations Adviser
