  • O and TT-Line Company Pty Ltd

    On 6 January 2022, O submitted an application for assessed disclosure under the Right to Information Act 2009 (the Act) to TT-Line Company Pty Ltd (TT-Line). O requested passenger and car registration information relating to the Spirit of Tasmania ferry.

    TT-Line released a decision and held that the requested information was exempt from disclosure in full pursuant to s36 of the Act (personal information). O sought an internal review of the decision regarding car registration details, accepting the finding regarding passenger details.

    The original decision was upheld on internal review and O sought external review.

    The Ombudsman affirmed TT-Line’s exemption of car registration details under s36 of the Act, finding their release would be contrary to the public interest in the circumstances.

  • Clive Stott and TT-Line Company Pty Ltd

    On 16 March 2019, Mr Clive Stott made an application for assessed disclosure under the Right to Information Act 2009 to TT-Line Company Pty Ltd (TT-Line). He sought air quality monitoring reports in relation to the Spirit of Tasmania I and Spirit of Tasmania II, following the deaths of 16 polo ponies on a truck which travelled on one of the vessels in 2018. TT-Line issued a decision on 9 May 2019 to refuse the majority of Mr Stott’s request on the basis that it considered that:

    • the disclosure of the information would prejudice an ongoing investigation into the deaths of the ponies (s30);
    • the information contains personal information of a person other than Mr Stott (s36); and
    • the release of the information would expose TT-Line to competitive disadvantage (s38).

    This decision was upheld at internal review and Mr Stott sought external review of that decision.

    The Ombudsman determined that exemptions claimed under ss30, 36 and 38 were not made out and relevant documents should be released to Mr Stott.

  • Graeme Gilmour and TT-Line

    Mr Gilmour runs a caravan park in Tasmania's north west. Mr Gilmour has noticed changes over the years and so he sought information from the TT-Line in relation to the number of recreational vehicles that might be traveling to Tasmania.

    TT-Line refused this information on the basis that, if its cargo carrying capacity and freight movements were revealed, it would expose it to competitive disadvantage. The Ombudsman overturned this decision and determined the information should be released.
