Senate Order 8
The Senate agreed on 14 November 1994 to a motion by Senator Harradine requiring
that each Minister table indexed file lists of file titles created by Central
Offices of each department or agency he or she administers. The lists are
to be tabled twice a year, once in the spring sittings, comprising the titles
created in the preceding January to June and, once in the autumn sittings,
comprising titles created in the preceding July to December.
The order was varied by the Senate on 3 December 1998 and now requires:
- that each department and agency provide, on its internet home page, access to an indexed list of all relevant files created; and
- tabling of a letter from the Portfolio Minister to the President of the Senate, advising that such indexed lists have been placed on the internet.
In addition, under the terms of the order, "relevant files" include
those relating to policy advising functions, the development of legislation
and matters of public administration. Case related files, those related to
internal administration of a department or agency, and those files transferred
to the Australian Archives, are specifically excluded.
The following list represents a combined listing of ARIA
files.
