Right to information
What is the Right to Information?
The Right to Information is the Queensland Government's approach to giving the community greater access to information.
The Queensland Government has made a commitment to provide access to information held by the Government, unless on balance it is contrary to the public interest to provide that information.
New legislation replacing the Freedom of Information Act 1992 came into effect on 1 July 2009, namely the:
- Right to Information Act 2009 (the 'RTI Act')
- Information Privacy Act 2009 (the 'IP Act')
The Right to Information reforms aim to make more information available, provide equal access to information across all sectors of the community, and provide appropriate protection for individuals' privacy.
Visit the Queensland Government Right to Information website to read more about the Right to Information.
How can information be accessed?
If you wish to access information held by the Board we recommend that in the first instance you peruse our Publication scheme and Disclosure log. If you have been unable to find the information you are seeking, please contact the Board Secretariat.
If you wish to make a formal application for documents under the RTI Act or IP Act, please refer to Make a request.
