Right to Information Act / Information Privacy Act Applications
If you are making an application to DJAG under either the Information
Privacy Act 2009 (IP Act) or the Right to Information Act 2009 (RTI Act) a
member of RTI and Privacy will respond in writing acknowledging receipt of
your application and advising how the application will proceed, and any
further actions that may be required by you.
Once your application is valid (meaning that all of the requirements for a
valid application under the legislation have been met) you will be
notified in writing and the statutory timeframe for processing a decision
(25 business days) will commence, however this may be extended. If this
occurs an officer from RTI and Privacy will contact you.
RTI and Privacy is able to assist you with information regarding the
procedural steps to lodge an application under the RTI Act or the IP Act
with DJAG for documents in its possession or control. However, the RTI
and IP process is not designed to answer questions. If you are seeking
answers to questions, and not documents, you might consider contacting the
business unit in DJAG responsible for the subject matter of your questions
directly.
