Every six months, the ATSB is required to comply with the Senate
Order of Continuing Effect - Indexed lists of departmental and
agency files (known more often as 'the Harradine Report', as the
order was instigated by then Senator Harradine in 1996).
This Senate Order requires that an indexed list of all files,
created in the central offices of all Federal Government agencies,
be published to the Internet, so it is accessible to the public and
can assist with Freedom of Information requests.
The Senate Order also requires that only relevant file titles be
published on the agency's website and allows for the following
exclusions to be made from the list;
-
Case related files (e.g. personal representations or
dealings with the personal affairs of policy departments or tax
payers),
-
Files related to the internal administration of the
Agency,
-
Containing commercially confidential or identifiably personal
information,
-
Files that on face value, disclose that a particular matter
had been put out, or was to be put to the Cabinet.
