9:20 AM OPENING KEYNOTE: The True Impacts of Open Government and How to Safely Release Data
In recent years the way in which contemporary governments operate has become more complicated and new modes of government service delivery have increased the complexity of agency operating environments. These changes require flexible and robust information infrastructure to promote credible stewardship and effective use of information. The Information & Privacy Commission provides independent oversight of both the right to access information and the right to privacy.
This session will explore:
- Recently published guidelines to help government departments make informed decisions about open data
- Strategies for government departments to overcome concerns about privacy, confidentiality, defamation, and confusion about open government laws
- Balancing information access and privacy
