ICT policies

This page provides access to ICT (Information and Communications Technology) policy documentation. Policies are high level, principles-based statements that communicate the department's intent. They are supported by standards, (more detailed requirements), and guidelines (information supporting good practices). ICT policy documents classified as ‘Official-Internal’ or above require Queensland Health log on to access.
