There have been many important changes in Australian government access laws over the past decade, including law reforms which have substantially affect three of the main laws discussed in this book. The Commonwealth Freedom of Information Act has been substantially amended incorporate many important features of second generation FOI laws including: oÂeo A new presumption of openness as reflected in a new objects clause and provisions which spell out criteria to be taken into account and not taken into account in making decisions involving public interest tests. oÂeo The creation of a new Office of the Australian Information Commissioner with responsibility for monitoring the Act and providing review of FOI access decisions. oÂeo New requirements for agencies to proactively publish specific information and to maintain FOI disclosure logs oÂeo A requirement for Commonwealth agencies to implement contractual measures to ensure access to documents held by contracted service providers The Commonwealth Privacy Act has been amended in three important respects: oÂeo It now includes a set of new, harmonised, privacy principles which regulate both government agencies and private sector organisations via a set of Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) which have replaced the existing Information Privacy Principles (IPPs) National Privacy Principles (NPPs). oÂeo It provides the Privacy Commissioner with enhanced powers, including powers to accept enforceable undertakings, seek civil penalties in the case of serious or repeated breaches of privacy and conduct assessments of the privacy performance of both government agencies and private sector organisations. oÂeo It makes changes to credit reporting requirements including allowing the reporting of information about an individualoÂeÂ(tm)s current credit commitments and their repayment history information. The NSW FOI Act has been repealed and replaced by the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009.

FREEDOM OF INFORMATION AND PRIVACY IN AUSTRALIA: GOVERNMENT AND INFORMATION ACCESS IN THE MODERN STATE provides a clear exposition of the different legal regimes that govern access to, and amendment of, government information, including freedom of information laws, information privacy laws, health records laws and public records laws. It also provides an insightful analysis of their operation, having regard to their context within the 'modern state', an environment that is characterised by privatisation, deregulation and contracting-out and which has been transformed both by information technology and a post-September 11 preoccupation with national security. As well as providing detailed treatment of Commonwealth, New South Wales and Victorian laws, it also provides useful summaries of the legal regimes in other Australian jurisdictions. This well written book provides a reliable reference for public sector decision-makers who are required to make access decisions and for lawyers, accountants and others who provide advice about FOI and privacy laws. It is also a valuable resource for students, journalists and public interest groups.
