Share data safely with the DATA Scheme
The Data Availability and Transparency Act 2022
established a new, best-practise scheme for sharing
Australian Government data, underpinned by
strong safeguards and simplified efficient processes - the DATA Scheme.
Commonwealth, state and territory government bodies and
Australian universities are already applying to be accredited as
data users and data service providers. Get started on your safe data sharing journey today.

Et harum quidem rerum facilis est et expedita distinctio.
