A person may make a specific request to an agency for any item of contract information contained in schedules 1 or 2, or for a copy of a contract, which is not required to be routinely disclosed under section 15A of the FOI Act. The agency must provide the requested contract information or the requested copy of the contract to the requesting person (less any confidential information) within 60 days of receiving the request.
Where a copy of a contract has been requested and some or all of the contract is not provided for reasons of confidentiality, the agency should disclose:
• the reasons for not providing;
• a statement as to whether the contract or provisions will be provided and, if so, when; and
• where some but not all of the provisions of the contract have been provided, a general description of the types of provisions that have not been provided.
