Madam Chair, I move that this committee recommends that the Department of Finance, in consultation with the Information and Privacy Commissioner, by April 1, 2023, update policies governing the use of mobile handheld devices by the public service, including:
1. The Mobile Handheld Devices Policy, to expand the policy provisions for proper use to address all the ways a user can collect, use, or disclose personal information with a device.
2. The employee code of conduct to introduce provisions to protect personal privacy regarding the use of government equipment and property; and.
3. New policy guidance to address the use of personal devices and email to conduct government business;
And further, that the Department of Finance should supplement these policies with easily accessible guidance documents on how devices should and should not be used.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
