"The Privacy Act will give Australians greater control over the use of their personal information when they deal with government, business and other private sector organisations while providing the regulatory tools to build a culture that respects privacy", said Mr Crompton. The Privacy Commissioner will work with private sector organisations to establish privacy solutions and promote good practices for managing the personal information of Australians. "Some businesses and organisations are already in a strong position to comply with the Act while others may need to do some work to get their privacy house in order to conform to the Act," Mr Crompton said.
