Departmental Information
The Tasmanian Government routinely discloses information to the public under the Right to Information Act 2009. To further enhance our transparency and to enable greater consistency across government in when this information will be released, the Tasmanian Government has agreed to routinely disclose information twice a year (April and October), or within 10 working days of changes taking place.
Departmental information to be routinely disclosed includes information such as: organisational structures and functions, departmental governance policies, major policy projects, employment statistics, Senior Executive Service details, expenditure on telecommunications, gifts and hospitality, and contracts and consultancies over $50 000.
State Service websites, including the Department for Department-specific information, will include this and much more information. For easy reference, this page will include some key links.
