Education is Key
Education is a key focus of RTI Consultants. It is vital that all government employees are trained on their obligations and responsibilities under the Right to Information Act 2009 and Information Privacy Act 2009 to ensure compliance with Queensland’s information access and privacy system.
While government employees may not be directly involved in information access processing or managing privacy complaints, they must still comply with these pieces of legislation. The RTI Act places obligations on employees to maintain proper records and provide information subject to information access requests. The IP Act requires all government employees collect, use, disclose and store personal information of individuals in accordance with the privacy principles.
To assist government employees in understanding and complying with these obligations, we have created two 15 minutes training videos. These can be purchased via a yearly licence or individually per staff member.
Course 1: Training on the Right to Information Act
Our 15 minute RTI training course educates public servants about the importance of the right to information system in Queensland and their role and obligations under the system.
The course covers:
- The different pieces of legislation that give the public access to government held information
- The types of information subject to the legislation
- How to search for information subject to an information access request
- the importance of collaboration between an agency’s staff and it’s RTI team/decision-maker; and
- An overview of exemptions and the public interest balancing test
Course 2: Training on the Information Privacy Act
Our 15 minute Privacy training course educated public servants about the fundamental human right of privacy and how to handle personal information.
The course covers:
- The definition of personal information
- An overview of the information privacy principles (collection, use, disclosure and storage of personal information)
- Consequences of non-compliance with the privacy principles
- Dealing with contracted service providers; and
- Responses to privacy breaches and complaints
