Freedom of Information (FOI)

The Victorian Freedom of Information Act 1982 gives the general right to access information held by State and Local Government agencies.

Your request must be in writing, clearly and accurately describe the documents you are seeking to access, be for specific documents or a group of documents.

Your FOI request (and payment of application fee) can be submitted to:

Warracknabeal, Victoria 3393

Or posted to:

Yarriambiack Shire Council
PO Box 243

Please be aware there are two costs associated with making an FOI request:
1. Application Fee
2. Access Charges 
Please call Customer Service on (03) 5398 0100 for the most recent prices.
The charges are levied under the Freedom of Information (Access charges) Regulations 2014.

Accessed documents may be written, printed, electronic, maps, photographs and audio recordings. Not all documents are automatically available, and some exemptions apply.
