- All agencies subject to the GIPA Act must report annually information and data on their obligations under the GIPA Act.
- The agencies must report on information and data required by Clause 8 of the GIPA Regulation, including Tables A to I in Schedule 2 of the GIPA Regulation.
- All agencies should use the IPC GIPA Tool to submit their information and data.
- Agencies can register users for the IPC GIPA Tool at: www.ipc.nsw.gov.au/gipa-tool/
- Agencies must submit information and data to the IPC by 8 December 2023.
- All agencies must conduct a review of information release programs and indicate this in response to the question on clause 8(a).
- Business units within agencies (e.g. Local Health Districts) who use the GIPA Tool to manage their GIPA applications but report their annual GIPA data via a centralised unit within their Department or Cluster should not use the GIPA Tool to submit their data to the IPC. Instead, contact your department/cluster right to information unit.
