Customer and Product Data Act 2025

Administrative matters - Consequential amendments - Amendments to Privacy Act 2020

151: Section 208 amended (Consultation)

You could also call this:

"Privacy Commissioner must now ask a new person for advice when making rules"

The law is changing how the Privacy Commissioner needs to talk to people when making rules. Now, when the Privacy Commissioner is thinking about making new rules, they need to talk to someone new. This new person is called the 'chief executive' in the Customer and Product Data Act 2025. The Privacy Commissioner will need to ask this chief executive what they think about the new rules. This is in addition to the other people the Privacy Commissioner already talks to. This change is being made to make sure the right people are involved when making decisions about privacy.
