Statistic Information with Previous Year Comparison to 2008/2009 There were 4 completed FOI applications during 2009/2010 compared to 3 completed applications in 2008/2009. No ministerial directions for amendment of personal records were received in this period. There were no internal reviews or Ombudsman reviews received, nor matters before the Administrative Decisions Tribunal, during 2009/2010. Impact of the Freedom of Information Act Hawkesbury City Council has, since prior to the introduction of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Legislation and Local Government Act 1993, advocated a policy of open government with access being available to documents of the Council and all meetings open to the public. The introduction of the legislation and the community's increased awareness of information being available has placed a greater resource commitment on the organisation's behalf in providing access to documents. While the number of FOI applications as above have been minimal, an increase in the number of access to information requests under Section 12 of the Local Government Act, continue to impact on Council's activities by increasing the amount of time Council commits to researching, compiling and providing the required documents. Council's policies and procedures have been extended to provide consistent pre-application advice to applicants. This includes explaining the procedures involved in determining a request, and assisting the applicant in identifying the nature of the information being sought. From 1 July 2000, it has also been necessary to consider the requirements of the Privacy Management Plan, in assessing applications for access to information. 2009/2010 Annual Report Page 137
