Submission

PIAC submitted a joint response to the Commonwealth Treasury’s ‘Opt-out’ Joint Account Data Sharing Model with the Consumer Action Law Centre, the Financial Rights Legal Centre, and the Australian Privacy Foundation.

Our joint submission opposed the proposed rules amendments with respect to “trusted advisers”, CDR insights and joint accounts which we believe would undermine many of the in-built consumer protections initially envisaged for the scheme, including privacy protection.
