39  Publication of agreements and policies
 (1) The Secretary must publish on the Department's website a copy of each of the following documents:
 (a) the intergovernmental agreement;
 (b) a participation agreement;
 (c) the NDLFRS hosting agreement;
 (d) an instrument that causes a person or body to become, or cease to be, a party to a participation agreement or the NDLFRS hosting agreement;
 (e) a document that is approved by the Coordination Group provided for by the intergovernmental agreement and sets out an access policy for a service;
 (f) a document varying, terminating or revoking a document described in paragraph (a), (b), (c), (d) or (e).
 (2) However, the copy need not include part of the document if the Secretary considers that publication of the part:
 (a) creates a risk to the security of identification information or an approved identity verification facility; or
 (b) unreasonably discloses personal information that relates to an individual; or
 (c) if the document is a participation agreement or a document described in paragraph (1)(e)—creates a risk to Australia's national security (within the meaning of the National Security Information (Criminal and Civil Proceedings) Act 2004).
 (3) If the Secretary publishes the copy without part of the document because of subsection (2), the Secretary must publish on the Department's website written reasons for not publishing the part, except so far as publication of the reasons would create a risk described in subsection (2) or unreasonably disclose personal information.
