OIC continues to deliver resources to help public sector agencies prepare for the reforms under the Information Privacy and Other Legislation Amendment Act 2023 (IPOLA Act), due to commence on 1 July 2025.

Six new guidelines are now available relating to information privacy reforms:

  • Who does the Information Privacy Act apply to
  • Key privacy concepts – consent
  • Key privacy concepts – generally available publication
  • Anonymity and pseudonymity in complaint management
  • Compliance notices

As the content and resources continue to grow, the IPOLA section on the OIC website has undergone some recent changes to improve user experience and aesthetics.
