Under the Privacy (Australian Government Agencies – Governance) APP Code 2017 (Privacy Code), the National Capital Authority (NCA) is required to maintain and publish a register of the Privacy Impact Assessments (PIA) which it conducts for all high-risk privacy projects.
A project may be a high privacy risk project if the NCA reasonably considers that the project involves any new or changed ways of handling personal information that are likely to have a significant impact on the privacy of individuals.
Since the Privacy Code came into effect on 1 July 2018, the NCA has conducted one PIA.
The NCA will incorporate PIAs into the register as they are completed.
