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.

Customer and Product Data Bill

Administrative matters - Designation regulations

97: Designation regulations

You could also call this:

“Rules for making special laws about data sharing”

The Governor-General might make new rules called designation regulations. These rules would be about things mentioned in section 100. The Governor-General can only make these rules if the Minister suggests it.

When these rules are made, they become a type of law called secondary legislation. This means they need to follow certain steps to become official, which you can find out about in Part 3 of the Legislation Act 2019.
