Information Publication Scheme
Part II of the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act) establishes an Information Publication Scheme (IPS) applicable to agencies including the National Competition Council (Council). The IPS requires the Council to publish certain information by 1 May 2011, including a plan of how the Council will contribute to the IPS, information about the Council's structure and operations and information about previous applications for access to information under the FOI Act.
The information the Council is publishing in accord with the IPS is available through this page. The Council will continue to identify and publish information on its website. Published information will be listed on this page.
If you require access to a Council document that does not appear on this website, or if you require a document in an accessible format, please contact the FOI officer at the addresses provided below.
