It seems there is no final record of MCB money laundering for 2011. How can that be?

Re: Final Budget for FY 2011
Dear Mr. Simmons:
This letter is in response to your February 1, 2012, email in response to my January 31, 2012 email response to your request for copies of public records, which we received on January 19, 2012, under the state's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), MCL 15.231 et seq.
You state: "I did not find the final budget for 2011, please send." Your email is attached.
Your request is denied as to existing, nonexempt records in the possession of this department responsive to your request pursuant to MCL 15.235, Section 5(4)(b) of the FOIA, after a search for public records responsive to this request, I certify that the public records, as requested, do not exist under the name given by you or another name reasonably known to the Department. Further, pursuant to MCL 15.233, Sections 3(4) and 3(5) of the FOIA, a public body is not required to make a compilation, summary, report of information, or create a new public record not already in existence as would be required to comply with your request.
In the spirit of cooperation, the attached Boards, Authorities & Commissions Financial Report for November 2012 including Projections (sent on January 31, 2012, attached to the response to your FOIA) document includes the total of expenditures for FY11 in the first column. I have also attached a March, 2011 MCB Operating Budget which is the latest month in FY 11 (10/1/2010 to 9/30/2011) of which exists to the best of my knowledge, information or belief, the document that we generally refer to as the MCB Operating Budget.
Under MCL 15.240 of the FOIA you may (1) submit a written appeal regarding the denial of any portion of your FOIA request to Mr. Steven H. Hilfinger, Director, Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs: Attention, Mike Zimmer, Chief Deputy Director, Ottawa Building, 4th Floor, P.O. Box 30004, Lansing, MI 48909. Your appeal notice must include the word "appeal" and state the reason(s) for reversal of the denial(s); or (2) you may seek judicial review in circuit court within 180 days of the Department's final determination. If you prevail in such action, the court shall award reasonable attorney fees, costs, and disbursements. If the court finds the Department's actions to be arbitrary and capricious, the court, in addition to any actual or compensatory damages, award punitive damages in the amount of $500.00.
Sincerely,
Carla Miller Haynes, FOIA Coordinator
Michigan Commission for the Blind
