| Subject: Statist insanity continues: OZschwitz courts' $1 million a year paper problem Tue Nov 25, 2014 9:04 pm | |
| If you were to stack every paper document held in the storage facilities of Australia's Federal Circuit Court and Family Court they'd stand about 24 kilometres high. That's 77 times the height of Sydney Tower and 80 times the height of Melbourne's Eureka Tower.
Deputy Chief Justice John Faulks said the cost of storing such documents is about $1 million a year, which is why he and his chief information officer, Phil Hocking, last month committed to moving to a fully electronic filing system to replace paper-based storage "as soon as practicable".
The courts are pursuing an electronic system not only because it makes sense but because documents stored — which go back as far as 1976, when the Family Court began — cost a fee to retrieve each time.
