Information sharing agreements entered into before relevant Act provisions commence
35 Information sharing agreements entered into before relevant Act provisions commence
If section 170 of the Act requires a matter relating to a provision of the Act to be included in an information sharing agreement, but the provision has not come into operation when the agreement comes into force —
the matter must still be included in the agreement; but
the agreement has no effect in relation to the matter for the period —
beginning on the day the agreement comes into force under section 178(1) of the Act; and
ending on the day immediately before the provision comes into operation.
Example for this regulation:
Under section 170(e) of the Act, an information sharing agreement must require each recipient under the agreement to comply with sections 192, 193 and 194(4) of the Act in relation to a shared information breach or suspected shared information breach involving information disclosed under the agreement. An agreement entered into before those sections of the Act come into operation must still include that matter, but will have no effect in relation to that matter until sections 192, 193 and 194(4) of the Act come into operation.
