Public consultation on Outsourcing in the Victorian public sector resource
Overview
OVIC is updating its guidance on outsourcing in the Victorian public sector.
The resource discusses the privacy and information security considerations Victorian public sector (VPS) organisations subject to the Privacy and Data Protection Act 2014 (Vic) should take into account when outsourcing a program or a service.
OVIC wants to ensure this resource is clear, relevant and practical for VPS organisations. OVIC is seeking feedback on the resource from stakeholders. Your feedback will be used to inform further updates to the guidance.
Consultation will be open for 3 weeks, from Monday 25 November 2024 to Friday 13 December 2024. OVIC will publish the new resource in early 2025.
