  • Association of Information Access Commissioners meeting communique
    Communiqué of the Association of Information Access Commissioners of Australia and New Zealand (AIAC) meeting held on 7 to 8 December 2022 in Wellington, New Zealand
    The Association of Information Access Commissioners (AIAC) met in Wellington, New Zealand, on 7 to 8 December, for its second meeting of 2022, hosted by New Zealand’s Chief Ombudsman, Peter Boshier.
  • The AIAC is comprised of independent information commissioners and ombudsmen of Australia and New Zealand who have oversight responsibilities, under their respective state and national jurisdictions, for access to government information laws.
  • The introduction of these first information access laws in 1982 was game-changing for both countries.
  • The right to access information has now further developed in some states and territories where information access laws have evolved to mandate the disclosure of some government-held information.
