Dear NSW Department of Justice,

I am making an informal access request for mandatory proactive release of
government information :
NCAT policies for provision / refusal of dial-in / AVL access to AEOD open court proceedings

It is my understanding that agency policy documents are mandatory disclosures
required under the GIPA Act:

GIPA Act Sect.23 What constitutes an agency’s policy documents
An agency’s "policy documents" are such of the following documents as are used by the agency in connection with the exercise of those functions of the agency that affect or are likely to affect rights, privileges or other benefits, or obligations, penalties or other detriments, to which members of the public are or may become entitled, eligible, liable or subject (but does not include a legislative instrument)—
(a) a document containing interpretations, rules, guidelines, statements of policy, practices or precedents,
(b) a document containing particulars of any administrative scheme,
(c) a document containing a statement of the manner, or intended manner, of administration of any legislative instrument or administrative scheme,
(d) a document describing the procedures to be followed in investigating any contravention or possible contravention of any legislative instrument or administrative scheme,
(e) any other document of a similar kind.
I have repeatedly requested access to dial-in / AVL details for NCAT AEOD open court proceedings (below).
