Submission on digital identity and digital identity (transitional and consequential provisions) bills
Mon 04 March 2024
The UNSW Allens Hub has made a submission to the Senate Economics Legislation Committee on digital identity and digital identity (transitional and consequential provisions) bills.
The submission provides specific suggestions on three key issues that concern the legislative framework on digital identity
systems (DI systems) as a whole.
1. The primacy of biometric technology and its consequences.
2. The bundling of multiple technologies and technological systems within modern digital
identity systems and its consequences on privacy and digital rights.
3. Voluntary co-option into the digital identity system and safeguards against mission creep.
