Privacy

The Corporate Integrity, Information & Resolutions unit (CIIRu) supports department and funded agency compliance with information privacy legislation.

The Information Privacy Act 2000 and the Health Records Act 2001 regulate the information handling of personal and health information. It includes standards for information collection, storage, access, transmission, disclosure, use and disposal.

CIIRu provides advice, training and tools to support privacy compliance and promote best practice within the department and public agencies. We are also responsible for coordinating the department's response to privacy complaints.

Privacy related complaints can be made by opening the following link feedback and making a complaint.
