Right to information

The access regime under the Right to Information 2009 (RTI Act) reflects the Queensland Government’s commitment to give the community access to information held by the Government, unless on balance it is contrary to the public interest to provide that information.

The RTI Act streamlines the process to access or amend information and promote equal access to information across all sectors of the community, and appropriate protection for individuals’ privacy. For more information, go to the Queensland Government Right to Information web page.

How do I access information?

There are a number of ways you can access information:

Publication Scheme

• Our publication scheme describes and categorises information routinely available. It has been developed to give the community greater access to information held by GAWB. Information is grouped and accessible through seven classes.

• GAWB’s structure and functions:
  • about GAWB—who we are and what we do
  • our finances—what we spend and how we spend it via our Annual Report
  • our policies—our policies and procedures
• How GAWB’s functions affect members of the public:
  • our business – services we offer
  • latest GAWB news – publications and media releases about GAWB
  • community and recreation – how we contribute to the broader community
  • our priorities—what our priorities are and how we are doing
  • our decisions—how we make decisions

Disclosure Log
