Freedom of Information (FOI) Part II Statement
The Freedom of Information Part II Statement provides a snapshot of our powers and functions, the documents and information we keep and the ways you can access them. Providing easily accessible information reduces the need to submit FOI requests under the Act.
If you cannot locate the information you are seeking after reviewing the Part II Statement and conducting a search on our website, we encourage you to contact the Senior Council Business Officer or Coordinator Council Business via email foi@melbourne.vic.gov.au before making a formal FOI request. In some instances we will be able to provide you with the information you are seeking without going through a formal process.
