This page is about a bill. That means that it's not the law yet, but some people want it to be the law. It could change quickly, and some of the information is just a draft.
This bill aims to create a system that helps people, businesses, and society get more value from certain types of data. It wants to encourage competition and new ideas that will be good for customers in the long run. The bill also wants to make sure that in some parts of New Zealand’s economy, data can be shared safely, in a standard way, and efficiently.
To do this, the bill wants to make it easier for you and people you trust to see and use information that companies have about you. It also wants to make it easier to find information about products in these areas of the economy.
The bill will require certain safety measures, rules, standards, and features to be put in place when sharing this data. This is to make sure your information is protected and used properly.
