Amendments to your personal information

Alternatively, you can make a formal  request to amend your personal information via a letter to Council's RTI/IP Decision-Maker. You can also download and complete a Personal Information amendment application form provided by the Queensland Goverment Right to Information website and forward to Council's RTI/IP Decision-Maker.

You will need to provide evidence of  identity required with the application, or within 10 business days of making the application. See the Evidence of Identity for more information.

All applications must provide sufficient information to enable the identification of the relevant document containing the incorrect information.

Advice must also be provided on what information is incorrect, why it is incorrect and what changes need to be made to correct the information.

No application fee or processing charge is applicable when making an amendment application.
