Interpreting Privacy Principles: Chaos or Consistency? Symposium Highlights

The symposium held in Sydney on May 17, 2006, marked the beginning of the iPP Project, funded by the Australian Research Council from 2006 to 2009. Co-led by Graham Greenleaf from UNSW's Cyberspace Law & Policy Centre, this project addresses the interpretation of Information Privacy Principles. The first of potentially two yearly symposia, it aims to explore consistency and inadequacies in privacy legislation and its interpretation. By facilitating communication between privacy officials and analysts, the project seeks to promote standardized practices across jurisdictions, especially in the Asia-Pacific region.
