Complete Publication Listing and Access to Information

Queanbeyan City Council is subject to NSW legislation that requires it to be open and accountable in the exercise of its functions, and to handle personal and health information in a fair and reasonable manner. Council will seek to ensure that legitimate requests for access to information are handled promptly and that members of the public are able to access information, subject to the public interest. In doing so, Council recognises that it must take into account the privacy of others, legal and commercially sensitive information.

Where practicable, Council will deal with requests to inspect documents in accordance with the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009 (GIPAA) free of charge but a reasonable photocopying fee may be payable under the Act and for access to versions of documents that are neither current nor immediately preceding versions of the document and are not reasonably accessible.
