Compliance and audit reports
OIC monitors and reports on agency compliance with the RTI Act and the IP Act by conducting audits, reviews and surveys of government departments, local governments, statutory authorities, government owned corporations and universities, in order to measure the extent to which the agencies have achieved the right to information and information privacy reforms. Under the RTI Act, OIC reports on review outcomes to the Parliamentary Committee for Legal Affairs and Safety Committee (LASC), and under the IP Act, reports can be sent to the Speaker for tabling in the Legislative Assembly.

Follow-up audit - Awareness of privacy obligations
On Tuesday, 23 March 2021, the Speaker of the Queensland Legislative Assembly tabled our follow-up audit report detailing the progress three government agencies have made in implementing the recommendations of our 2018-19 awareness of privacy obligations audit. Our audits have helped agencies entrusted with personal information improve their practices to minimise the risk of harm to the community.
The audited agencies have done significant work on educating their staff about information privacy and security obligations and implemented all 12 recommendations from our original audit.
