FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT 1982 - SECT 47H

Public interest conditional exemptions--research

    A document is conditionally exempt if:

  (a)   it contains information relating to research that is being, or is to be, undertaken by an officer of an agency specified in Schedule   4; and

  (b)   disclosure of the information before the completion of the research would be likely unreasonably to expose the agency or officer to disadvantage.

Note:   Access must generally be given to a conditionally exempt document unless it would be contrary to the public interest (see section   11A).
