MINISTER FOR HEALTH, EDUCATION AND THE ARTS

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

QUESTION NO 280

Freedom of Information

MR BERRY - asked the Minister for Health, Education and the Arts on notice on 16 October 1990:

In relation to the Section 7 statement under the Freedom of Information Act 1989 published in Special Gazette S23 dated 10 May 1990; can the Minister confirm (a) does the Department of Healths Freedom of Information manual bear the date of 1983 and relate to the Freedom of Information Act 1982; and (b) when will the new manual be produced so that members of the public can exercise their rights under the Act.

MR HUMPHRIES - the answer to Mr Berrys question is:

The Section 7 statement does not specifically list the ACT Board of Healths Freedom of Information Manual, as it is listed in the Section 8 statement. The Boards manual does bear the date of 1983 and relates to the Freedom of Information Act 1982. It is anticipated that the new manual will be available in early 1991.
