IREX Q - Pre-flight forecasts

[Cougar]

Can't find the reference or answer to this IREX q:

On a multi-leg flight from Melbourne to Darwin, what is the published prior notice for a pre-flight forecast?

I said 3 hours, it is wrong. Have looked at Gen 3.3 and also ERSA GEN and can't find anything mentioning it?

Please advise!!

10.2 For Domestic Operations
10.2.1 All meteorological information issued on a routine basis and held by the briefing office concerned is available without prior notice.
Eight (8) hours notice is required for non-routine forecasts.
10.3 Forecasts for Flights − Valid Area Forecasts not Available
10.3.1 Route forecasts required for flights for which valid Area Forecasts are not available will be supplied subject to the prior notification specified in the following table:

(b) Preflight for multi stage flights having a duration of more than 6 hours = 8 hours
