NAA’s new policy: Building Trust in the Public Record

The National Archives of Australia (NAA) published in July 2020 the draft  policy Building Trust in the Public Record: managing information and data for government and community. It was been released together with a list of supporting advice that exists, or will be developed or updated, to support the policy. InfoGovANZ submitted its feedback in response to the new policy, which is available here. The new policy will take effect from 1 January 2021 and will follow the current Digital Continuity 2020 policy (DC2020) which concludes at the end of this year. The policy seeks to improve information management capability within the Australian Government to meet current and future needs for authentic and reliable information and data by government and community.
