Introduction

“Documents explaining the main ideas behind the bill”
The Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment has created two important documents called regulatory impact statements. These statements help explain the main ideas behind the Customer and Product Data Bill. They were made on 23 June 2021 and 4 May 2022.
You can find these documents online. The first one talks about setting up a consumer data right. You can read it at https://www.mbie.govt.nz/dmsdocument/15545-regulatory-impact-statement-establishing-a-consumer-data-right-proactiverelease-pdf.
The second document gives more information about decisions made for the consumer data right. You can find this one at https://www.mbie.govt.nz/dmsdocument/25845-supplementary-regulatory-impact-statement-further-decisions-on-establishing-a-consumer-data-right-proactiverelease-pdf.
