I asked DFAT what its passport letters had achieved.
Sixty-nine pages came back. Inside were officials debating who should receive a letter, questioning proposed restrictions, and asking when a case could be closed.
I follow those exchanges to understand the limits of the help offered to families like mine, and what the records could tell me about whether that help ever reached the young people it was meant for.
