The ATO Data and Intelligence Disclosure Governance Plan establishes procedures for sharing tax data and intelligence with the Fraud Fusion Taskforce, a multi-agency initiative led by the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission. The document outlines governance frameworks for disclosing ATO information to partner agencies under the taskforce's Memorandum of Understanding, covering legislative authorities for data sharing, handling of sensitive identifiers like Tax File Numbers, protocols for oral disclosures, and obligations for partner agencies regarding data protection and use restrictions. It addresses Special Purpose Acquisition Data (SPAD), aggregated datasets, and security requirements for data transfer channels. The plan incorporates privacy safeguards through Privacy Impact Assessments and a Data Ethics Framework, with provisions for data destruction and stewardship responsibilities assigned to business data stewards. No specific compliance metrics, case volumes, or financial figures are disclosed in the excerpt.
