It has been developed to give the community greater access to information held by government organisations. There is no charge for providing copies of the information contained in the publication scheme. Information in our publication scheme is grouped and accessible through seven classes:

Financial reporting information is available in a number of publications. Our annual report provides a summary of our financial and corporate performance for the year. The report enables the Queensland community and government to assess our financial and operational performance.
The Service Delivery Statement (SDS) provides the community and other interested parties with information on how we propose to use our financial resources and the outcomes to be achieved in the following financial year. The SDS also provides a summary of achievements against the previous year's published budget and planned outcomes.
We demonstrate our priorities and accountability to parliament and the community through a number of corporate documents. Our services are aligned with our strategic objectives as outlined in our Strategic Plan.
