What is the Privacy Impact Assessment Register
The Privacy Impact Assessment Register records details of PIAs conducted by us since 1 July 2018.
Why we have the register
The Australian Government Agencies Privacy Code requires that all agencies, including the Department of Health and Aged Care, must conduct a PIA for all high privacy risk projects.
