Routine Disclosures and Right to Information


Have your say – Ministerial Diaries

Since April 2023, diaries for Tasmanian Ministers have been routinely released by the Government on a quarterly basis.

This information is publicly available on the Department of Premier and Cabinet Ministerial and Parliamentary Support Routine Disclosure website, and includes details of ministerial portfolios, visits, events attended, and media commitments.

Currently, personal or electorate meetings, internal government meetings with Ministers, staff, or government officials are not included.

A Discussion Paper which considers other jurisdictions' models and proposes changes to Tasmania’s routine disclosures was developed in November 2025.

In December 2025, public consultation was undertaken on the Discussion Paper. This consultation is now closed.

A table of the submissions received can be found below.
