Funded Activity Summary

Creating more consistent privacy principles through better interpretation and law reform: an Australasian initiative to resolve an international problem. More consistent information privacy principles at the core of Australia's privacy laws, and more consistency in interpretation, will result in greater efficiency for business and government, and better protection of human rights and consumer interests. In the health sector, consistency of privacy laws will facilitate better health through the development of national online health infrastructure. Australasian privacy scholarship will obtain enhanced international recognition through a pioneering study of the comparative use of privacy case law for cross-national interpretation. 'Model IPPs' will aid the harmonisation of global privacy laws.
