I have a supplementary question. Given that the Premier is the Minister for Public Sector Management, when will he honour his commitment to introduce legislation to protect the privacy of personal information, including the requirement that all agencies report to this Parliament about privacy protection on an annual basis? Dr G.I. GALLOP
AnswerView source ↗
I will look into the matter raised by the member. We currently have rules about private information held by government departments. Mr C.J. Barnett: You are the minister; it is not good enough to blame agency heads. Dr G.I. GALLOP: As I said, as the Premier of this State I will be talking to all ministers who are responsible for those departments to make sure those rules are properly followed.
