The Australian Law Reform Commission’s report on privacy laws in Australia, For Your Information: Australian Privacy Law and Practice (ALRC 108), has been released. You can download the three-volume, 2700 page report here, or view the media release and accompanying briefing notes here.
There is a lot to digest in that report, but I am most interested in the recommendation that Australia should introduce a statutory cause of action for serious invasions of privacy. Read the briefing note relating to that recommendation here. I will try to comment on this recommendation in the next few days.
