The Mike Hosking Breakfast - En podkast av Newstalk ZB - Onsdager

A push for government agencies to raise the bar when handling public data. The Public Service Commission's revealed multiple failures by Stats New Zealand, Health New Zealand, and the Ministry of Health, with regard to safeguarding data. It comes after allegations surfaced last June about a potential misuse of Census and Covid vaccine data by providers at Manurewa Marae. Public Service Commissioner Sir Brian Roche told Mike Hosking that there’s a broader issue. He says the model that’s been used is very good and the people who work in it are amazing, but the model is no longer fit for purpose. "We live in a world that’s changing dramatically, we’ve got the adoption of technology and all of those things, and we need to sort of face into that and get ahead of the curve.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
