Submission on Digital ID Bill and Digital ID Rules UPDATE: Additional Submission February 2024

The UNSW Allens Hub has made submissions as part of the Digital Identity consultation
process as well as the more specific invitation we received to make submissions on the related
Identity Verification Services Bill 2023 and the Identity Verification Services (Consequential
Amendments) Bill 2023.

While these have different deadlines, they are all related and thus we have
combined our response into a single submission for the earlier date (2 October 2023). In particular,
together, this set of legislation establishes a framework for introducing and regulating digital identity
in Australia and the operation of identity verification services and provide privacy and security
protections for those using them.

A copy of the Submission is here.

This Submission has now been accepted. Read more here.
