Open Access Information

Your right to information
On 1 July 2010 new right to information legislation came into effect, replacing the former freedom of information law.

The new law:
creates new rights to information that are designed to meet community expectations of more open and transparent government
encourages government agencies to proactively release government information.

You can find out more about your right to information and new ways to access NSW government information on the Office of the Information Commissioner (OIC) website at www.oic.nsw.gov.au.

The Historic Houses Trust of NSW publishes a range of information under the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009.

Follow the links to find out more about our policies, a disclosure log of information applications and our register of government contracts.

We aim to make information about our organisation and operations easily accessible to members of the public providing there is no overriding public interest reason not to. Where possible, we make such information freely available online at this site.

As far as possible requests for access to information not already available at this site will be dealt with informally. You can make an informal request by contacting us in person or by telephone, email or letter.

You can make a formal application by sending us a completed application form.
