Information Publication Scheme
An Information Publication Scheme (IPS) has been established under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act).
The FOI Act requires agencies from 1 May 2011 to publish
- specified information on agency operations under the IPS
- information accessed in response to FOI applications in a disclosure log.
The FOI Act also encourages proactive publication of information held by an agency.
The Inspector-General of Taxation (IGT) provides the following information in accordance with the IPS and will continue to identify and publish information accessible through this website.
