[FOI Act Part] Part V — Amendment and annotation of personal records [FOI Act section] 48 [Recommended action] (If the proposal to remove Part V is not adopted) s 48 should be amended to make it clear that only records controlled by an Australian Government agency or minister can be amended. [Issue description] 
Part V applies to documents of an agency and official documents of ministers. Some documents of agencies are not controlled by those agencies: for example, documents in national information sharing systems such as CrimTrac and MySchool. There is also no scope for amendment applications to be transferred to the State or Territory agency from where the document originated.
