Information Session from the Office of the National Data Commissioner (ONDC) on the DATA Scheme
PHRN is excited to host this webinar with a representative from the Office of the National Data Commissioner (ONDC) on the DATA Scheme on Wednesday 17 August 2022 at 12noon AEST, 10am AWST.
On 1 April the Office of the National Data Commissioner (ONDC) commenced the Data Availability and Transparency Act 2022 (DATA) Scheme.
Due to an increasing number of questions about what the DAT Act means in practice for our research community as well as questions about accreditation, we have secured Simon Gallant who is Senior Adviser from the ONDC to give a presentation to answer all our questions.
A bit of background...
The Data Availability and Transparency Act 2022 establishes a new, best practice scheme for sharing Australian Government data – the DATA Scheme. The DATA Scheme is underpinned by strong safeguards and consistent, efficient processes. It is focused on increasing the availability and use of Australian Government data by helping deliver government services that are simple, effective and respectful, inform better government policies and programs, and support world-leading research and development.
The National Data Commissioner is the regulator of the DATA Scheme and provides advice and guidance about its operation. The National Data Commissioner also delivers education and support for best practice data handling and sharing.
The National Data Advisory Council provides advice on data sharing to the Commissioner on issues such as ethics, balancing data availability with privacy protections, trust and transparency, technical best practice, and industry and international developments.
