Right to Information

The Queensland Government has made a commitment to provide access to information held by the government, unless on balance it is contrary to the public interest to provide that information.

The Right to Information Act 2009 and Information Privacy Act 2009 came into effect on 1 July 2009, replacing the Freedom of Information Act 1992.

The Right to Information reforms aim to make more information available, provide equal access to information across all sectors of the community, and provide appropriate protection for individuals' privacy.

For more information about Right to Information, please visit the Queensland Government Right to Information website.

Access to information

The purpose of this framework is to address QRIDA’s requirements and responsibilities in dealing with information under the Right to Information and Information Privacy Acts and an individual’s rights to apply for access to documents/records.
