ACT now limits cabinet document access delays to under two months with a 30-day response rule.
The Australian Capital Territory has passed new legislation to dramatically reduce delays in public access to cabinet documents, cutting processing times from over a year to under two months.
The law sets a 30-day deadline for responding to requests, extendable by 30 days, and shifts appeals over withheld records to the ACT Ombudsman for greater independence.
The change, supported by the Greens and Labor, aims to improve transparency, accountability, and public trust, addressing longstanding frustrations from media and researchers.
