18 Application for access to government information

(a) be in writing; and
(b) specify the name of the applicant; and
(c) include sufficient details to identify the information; and
(d) specify an address to which correspondence regarding the application may be sent to the applicant.

There is a $30.00 application fee payable for all requests for government information. You can make your payment by cheque made out to the Receiver of Territory Monies and forwarded to GPO Box 4621, Darwin NT 0801 marked to my attention or alternatively, deposit your payment into:
