amendments
Freedom of Information (Public Opinion Polls)
Amendment Act 1998
The principal Act as in force immediately before the commencement of this
Act applies to a document that came into existence before that commencement as
if this Act had not been enacted.
Freedom of Information (Miscellaneous) Amendment
Act 2001
(1) The amendments to the principal Act effected by this Act do not apply
in relation to an application for access to an agency's documents made before
the commencement of this Act.
(2) An information statement or an information summary in force under Part
5A of the Local Government Act 1934 immediately before the repeal of
that Part by this Act will continue and have effect under the Freedom of
Information Act 1991 as if it had been prepared under that
Act.
(3) An application or proceeding commenced under Part 5A of the Local
Government Act 1934 that has not been finally determined immediately
before the repeal of that Part by this Act may be continued and completed as if
that repeal had not been effected.
Freedom of Information (Miscellaneous) Amendment Act
2004
(1) Subject to subsection (2), an amendment to the principal Act effected
by a provision of this Act applies in relation to an application under the
principal Act, or review or appeal proceedings relating to an application under
the principal Act, if the application or proceedings are determined after the
commencement of that provision (whether the application was lodged before or
after that commencement).
(2) Part 5 of the principal Act, as substituted by section 6 of this Act,
only applies in relation to determinations made on applications lodged under
Parts 3 and 4 of the principal Act after the commencement of section 6 of this
Act.
(3) If, before the commencement of this subsection, a document ceased to
be an exempt document under subclause (4) of clause 6 of Schedule 1 of the
principal Act (as in force immediately before the commencement of section 11 of
this Act) because the period of 30 years referred to in that subclause had
expired, the document is, for the purposes of an application under the principal
Act, or review or appeal proceedings relating to an application under the
principal Act, determined after the commencement of section 11 of this Act, to
be taken to have continued to be an exempt document under that clause (whether
the application was lodged before or after that commencement).
