Freedom of information

FOI Disclosure Log

From 1 May 2011, the Commonwealth Grants Commission (CGC) is required by section 11C of the Freedom of Information Act 1982 to disclose access decisions through a disclosure log on its website. The disclosure log provides access to information which has been released in response to a Freedom of Information (FOI) access request.

CGC FOI Disclosure Log

Detailed information about FOI can be found at the website for the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.

FOI requests

Requests to access documents must be in writing and must provide enough information about the documents sought to enable the CGC to identify them.

Requests should be lodged by email.

Fees and charges

There is no fee for making a request but the Freedom of Information Act 1982 provides that charges may be imposed for processing requests.

A charge may be imposed to reimburse the CGC for the cost incurred in copying or reproducing the information or sending it to you. We will try to meet all reasonable requests for an alternative format of the document in a timely manner and at the lowest reasonable cost to you.
