The South Australian Government has decided to make available more government held information to members of the public without requiring them to make a freedom of information (FOI) access application. Providing ready and easy access to government information allows the public to better engage with the government and participate in the making of important decisions, policies and laws.

There are two types of information available through proactive disclosure, information that is frequently requested through Freedom of Information, as described below, and Cabinet documents.

Frequently requested information

In September 2013, Cabinet approved the online publication of information regularly requested under FOI. The implementation of this policy is governed by Premier and Cabinet Circular 35 (PC035). The first set of information, covering July 2013, was made available in September 2013. This information will be updated periodically.

This information made available under PC035 includes expenditure on mobile phones, credit cards, travel and ancillary office expenditure. It also includes information relating to DTF’s capital works, consultants, gift register and procurement practices. Use the links below to view the information.
