ACCAN recently provided feedback to the Digital Transformation Agency on the draft documents for the Trusted Digital Identity Framework.
The documents set out the rules (policies, standards, and requirements) for all organisations and agencies that want to take part in the Government’s digital identity project. When the project is complete, consumers will be able to create a single online identity called ‘Govpass’ to login into all services provided by the participating agencies and organisations.
ACCAN provided feedback on the Core Privacy Requirements, which set out what organisations and agencies must do to ensure consumers’ privacy is protected. We also provided comments on the Core User Experience Requirements, which set out the rules for usability and accessibility. In addition, ACCAN reiterated concerns surrounding enforceability, and noted the importance that the TDIF remains voluntary.
