Data Governance Framework

Department of Finance

Data Champions Network

The Australian Government will develop a whole-of-government Data Governance Framework to define common rules, processes, and accountabilities for adoption across the APS to ensure privacy and compliance of government data is maintained. The Framework will provide APS agencies with direction on how to ensure the quality, integrity, security, discoverability, accessibility, and useability of data assets.

The Framework will be centred on four foundational pillars of data governance: data quality; data privacy; data authority; and data innovation.
