Our FOI disclosure log

access to case management records of the OAIC that outline all matters that are currently awaiting allocation to a case officer. The details to be contained in the report that were agreed to, include: type, case type, received date, respondent, assigned to and notice.

Full access provided.

In terms of the interpretation of the term ‘awaiting allocation to a case officer’, the report captures all Information Commissioner reviews (IC reviews) in which any preliminary inquiries/steps in an IC review have been undertaken and no further documents/information is required from the parties at this stage. The matters are ready for allocation to a Review Officer to conduct the IC review. Matters in which the OAIC is awaiting information/documents from either of the parties or where the OAIC is assisting the parties to resolve the IC review are case managed by the OAIC’s FOI Intake and Early Resolution team and are not included in the report.

Full access provided (material irrelevant to the request has been deleted under s 22 of the FOI Act).

The ‘Early Resolution help guide’ (pages 14–37) has not been formally approved by the OAIC’s Executive and some of the processes outlined may be out of date or no longer used.

The ‘Regulator Performance Framework self-assessment methodology’ document (pages 38–45) has not been endorsed by the OAIC’s Executive and therefore its official status is ‘draft’. Performance against the KPIs in the Regulator Performance Framework is recorded in the OAIC’s Corporate Plan.
