#Australia: States and territories agree on a national #digitalidentity system

According to the country’s digital and data ministers, Australians should soon be able to verify their identity online when accessing government services.

The government has been accepting public feedback on legislation that will oversee the Australian Government Digital Identity System, but it has not yet introduced this legislation.

Digital and data ministers met this week to discuss a new national #IT system and agreed that it would be a priority for 2022.

They also agreed to boost how their government departments work together on ICT procurement in order to find cost efficiency and better services delivery.
