Freedom of Information - Barossa Hills Fleurieu Local Health Network

The Freedom of Information Act 1991 (SA) gives members of the public a legally enforceable right to access information held by the South Australian Government, subject to certain conditions.

Each of SA Health’s agencies operates separately for the purposes of Freedom of Information (FOI) legislation. For general information, including where to apply and how documents can be accessed, see the Freedom of Information page.

There is a $42.00 FOI application fee, some requests may attract an additional processing charge. An FOI Officer will advise you of these charges once they receive your application and begin processing it.

If you are the holder of a current concession card, or if you can satisfy the agency that the payment of the fee or charge would cause financial hardship, the agency must waive or remit (reduce or refund) the application fee. These proofs should be submitted along with your application.

How to apply

When making an FOI application, you will need to provide enough information to enable the correct documents to be identified. If you are uncertain, it is recommended that you contact the relevant agency’s FOI Officer for assistance.

Advice about how you would like to access the documents should be included in your FOI application.

Applications can now be made by completing an online application form
