Public information

When we enter into a private sector contract to provide services to the public on its behalf, we are required to have immediate access to certain information in our contractor records.

Under Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009 (NSW) we must be able to access information that:

  • relates directly to the performance of services by the contractor
  • is collected by the contractor from members of the public who are provided or offered the services

Contractors are not required to provide Council with access to information that:

  • reveals your financing arrangements, financial modelling, cost structure or profit margins
  • the contractor is prohibited from disclosing to us under any Australian law
  • if revealed to Council, could place the contractor at a substantial commercial disadvantage, in present or future dealings with us.
