Energy Safe Victoria Act 2005

Energy Safe Victoria must submit a copy of its final report on an inquiry to the Minister.

If, in the opinion of Energy Safe Victoria, a final report will contain confidential or commercially-sensitive information, Energy Safe Victoria must divide the report into—

a document containing the confidential or commercially-sensitive information; and

another document containing the rest of the report.

If Energy Safe Victoria submits a final report to the Minister in the form required by subsection (2), a reference to the final report in subsections (4), (5) and (6) is to be read as a reference to the document described in subsection (2)(b).

The Minister must cause a copy of the final report to be laid before each House of the Parliament within 7 sitting days of the House after receiving the final report.

The Minister must, after the final report has been laid before each House of the Parliament, or if the Parliament is not sitting, within 30 days after receiving a final report, ensure that a copy of the final report is available for public inspection.

After the Minister has made a final report publicly available, Energy Safe Victoria must ensure that copies are made publicly available.
