The Australian Government FOI statistics dashboard presents key freedom of information (FOI) data over the last 5 years, as reported by Australian Government agencies and ministers to the OAIC under the Freedom of Information Act 1982.
The dashboard is an interactive presentation of data published in the OAIC’s annual reports and on data.gov.au. It will be updated quarterly.
Agencies and ministers are responsible for the reliability and quality of their data contained in the dashboard and questions about their data should be directed to them. For ministers’ data, the statistics relate to the ministerial position and do not distinguish between individuals occupying the role.
