The disclosure log requirement does not apply to:

personal information about any person if publication of that information would be ‘unreasonable’
information about the business, commercial, financial or professional affairs of any person if publication of that information would be ‘unreasonable’
other information covered by a determination made by the Australian Information Commissioner if publication of that information would be ‘unreasonable’
any information if it is not reasonably practicable to publish the information because of the extent of modifications that would need to be made to delete the information listed in the above dot points.

The information described in the disclosure log table below has been released under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 and is available for public access.

Routinely requested information

If circumstances change, we will use this page to publish copies of any documents to which we have routinely provided access under the FOI Act.
