With effect from 25 June 2012, when Part 2 of Schedule 2 commenced:
the Chair of the ACC Board and the CEO received express powers to provide information about the ACC’s activities to other ministers and members of Commonwealth and state/ territory parliaments
the CEO ’s power to disclose ACC information was extended to provide for disclosures, for a range of permitted purposes, to:
all Commonwealth and state/territory government bodies and statutory officers and a wider range of foreign government and international agencies (new section 59AA)
subject to strict safeguards, prescribed bodies corporate in the private sector (new section 59AB).
The extended powers of disclosure have significantly enhanced the ACC’s capacity to share criminal intelligence and other information within and, for the first time, beyond government. This will facilitate development of whole-of-government responses to, and governmentindustry partnerships in combating, the challenges posed by serious and organised crime. In accordance with the legislation, the ACC has developed and instituted robust safeguards to ensure proper management of ACC information.
