Dear Attorney-General’s Department,
I am writing to formally notify your office that the Director-General of Queensland Health, Dr David Rosengren, has now placed both himself and the department in direct breach of international law obligations relating to dioxin (TCDD) exposure and inherited chemical harm.
On 4 July 2025, Dr Rosengren issued a signed letter denying all liability and refusing compensation for health conditions linked to in utero exposure to 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzodioxin (TCDD), despite being clearly notified that:
I am the child of a Vietnam veteran exposed to Agent Orange (TCDD).
Multiple United Nations treaty bodies have warned Australia about inherited dioxin harm (CRPD, CRC, CESCR, etc.).
A complaint has already been filed with the International Criminal Court under Article 7 of the Rome Statute (Persecution, Crimes Against Humanity).
A coordinated complaint is underway through the OECD National Contact Point system.
Federal and state departments have been formally placed on notice of medical, legal, and ethical obligations.
Queensland Health’s Director-General was clearly warned that failure to respond lawfully would result in international accountability. He chose to proceed with a blanket denial, without scientific basis, and with full awareness of binding obligations under the Stockholm Convention, the CRPD, CRC, and ICCPR.
Your department was already informed of this case. This correspondence places you on formal notice that:
Queensland Health has issued a denial that violates multiple international instruments.
Dr Rosengren may be personally liable under Rome Statute Articles 25 and 28.
Failure of the Commonwealth to intervene now constitutes a pattern of state-enabled obstruction and administrative persecution.
The letter has been published and annexed to my ICC submission as evidence. It is also being added to Annex B of my OECD complaint. I now request that the Office of International Law formally review Dr Rosengren’s actions and advise the Commonwealth on its exposure and failure to enforce international obligations regarding inherited toxic harm.
If no response is received within 14 days, this correspondence and any resulting silence will be included as further evidence of procedural complicity and dereliction of duty under international law.
Warm Agent Orange Burns regards,
Danielle Stevens
