Right to Information Act 2009

An access application is taken only to apply to documents that are, or may be, in existence on the day the application is received.

However, subsection (1) does not prevent an agency or Minister giving access to a document created after the application is received but before notice is given under section 54 (a post-application document).

If the agency or Minister gives the applicant access to a post-application document—

no processing charge or access charge is payable in relation to the document;

the applicant is not entitled to review under this Act of a decision about the document made in relation to the application.
