What is UQ's Right to Information ?
 

• The University is subject to the Right to Information Act 2009 and the Information Privacy Act 2009 which gives you the right to access University-held documents unless access is contrary to the public interest.
   
• The Information Privacy Act 2009 also gives you the right to ensure that information in University files concerning your personal affairs is accurate and complete.
   
• UQ's Right to Information Policy and Information Privacy Management Policy is set out in full in the Policy and Procedures Library.

How to access information
 

• In some cases, information access requests do not have to be made formally through the Acts.
   
• For example, you can access your examination performance records and peruse your own examination scripts by approaching the particular course co-ordinator.
   
• In addition, an administrative access scheme has been approved enabling you to inspect your own files under supervision.
   
• To access files or make general inquiries, contact the Right to Information and Privacy Coordinator
  
  Please note: Fees and charges may apply to applications seeking access to non-personal information.
