  • James Davis and Circular Head Council

    On 21 November 2024, Mr James Davis submitted an assessed disclosure application to Circular Head Council (Council) under the Right to Information Act 2009 (the Act). Mr Davis requested information related to the proposed northern and western boundary consolidation and lease expansion of Stanley Caravan Park.

    Council issued a decision to Mr Davis in three parts, redacting some information and releasing the remainder. Mr Davis sought internal review and then external review when a decision was not provided within the statutory timeframe. This request was accepted and Council was directed to provide better reasons for decision under s47(1)(n) of the Act. In these additional reasons it advised that it relied on exemptions under ss32, 36 and 37 of the Act.

    Mr Davis only sought external review regarding Council’s use of exemptions under ss32 and 37 in a lease agreement, and whether Council’s search for information was sufficient.

    The Ombudsman determined that:

    • exemptions claimed pursuant to s32 did not apply;
    • exemptions claimed by Council pursuant to s37 should be varied; and
    • Council’s search for information was sufficient.
