Privacy in Australia: Perspectives of Privacy Commissioners in the States

Improve your understanding of the State and Territory Privacy and Information Commissioners’ priorities. They all cover the workings of State or Territory governments but many also impact the private sector, especially health information. How are they coordinating the approaches between their jurisdictions and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at the national level? How does the federal focus on enforcement of the revised Privacy Act influence or affect the states and their responsibilities? How are states approaching major privacy and AI governance topics such as FRT, age assurance, shrinking budgets and expanding demands on their agencies and teams? How is technology affecting State and Territory Government management of personal information?

Lucy Mannering, Partner and National Privacy Lead for Deloitte Australia, will lead a lively discussion with Commissioners from the nation’s territories addressing the most pressing issues.

What you will learn:

• Perspectives and operational differences between the jurisdictions and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
• Hear key insights on what these operational developments mean for individual jurisdictions and nationwide.
• A richer perspective on Australia’s privacy work flow in the years to come.
