Resources Legislation

Data Sharing and Release Legislative Reforms Discussion Paper was open for submissions between 3 September and 15 October 2019.

Reform of public sector data use will help us build a better Australia. Streamlining and modernising how the Government shares data, while ensuring privacy and security, can support policy and programs, services and research to:

Improve access to the information and services Australians need, without having to provide multiple areas of government with the same information.
Enable more smart and efficient services, like pre-filling forms that save time.
Inform decisions to prioritise funding when and where it is needed, for services such as education, regional development, transport, and health services.
Provide greater access to data for accredited researchers, scientists and innovators to help make Australia’s economy, environment and society healthier into the future.

The data that government collects plays a big part in making a better future for all Australians.
