The introduction of the Privacy and Responsible Information Sharing Act 2024 (PRIS Act) marks a significant shift in how WA public sector organisations will need to approach information governance. For records and information management practitioners, this presents both challenges and opportunities.
This session will unpack how the PRIS Act connects with the broader ecosystem of legislation, policies and standards - including information classification, cybersecurity, privacy, and records. We’ll explore how these frameworks intersect, what’s changing, and what remains critical in practice.
Attendees will gain a clearer view of the governance landscape that provide for more consistent and responsible sharing of information across and external to government and how their leadership in managing information is foundational to making this shift effective and enduring. The session will provide practical insights into aligning recordkeeping practice with emerging to help practitioners prepare, contribute, and lead with confidence.
