<div style="margin-top:5pt;margin-bottom:5pt"><font color="#222222">The Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security has commenced a review of the mandatory data retention regime proscribed by Part 5-1A of the <a href="https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/C2019C00010" target="_blank"><font color="#1F538D"><i>Telecommunications
(Interception and Access) Act 1979 (TIA Act).</i></font></a> On behalf of the Committee I am writing to invite you to make a submission to the Committee’s review.</font></div>
<div style="margin-top:5pt;margin-bottom:5pt"><font color="#222222">The mandatory data retention regime is a legislative framework which requires carriers, carriage service providers and internet service providers to retain a defined set of telecommunications
data for two years, ensuring that such data remains available for law enforcement and national security investigations.</font></div>
<div style="margin-top:5pt;margin-bottom:5pt"><font color="#222222">Section 187N of the TIA Act provides for the review and requires the Committee to report by 13 April 2020. Terms of reference are available <a href="https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Committees/Joint/Intelligence_and_Security/Dataretentionregime/Terms_of_Reference" target="_blank"><font color="#1F538D">here</font></a>. </font></div>
<div style="margin-bottom:10pt"><font color="#222222">The Committee has resolved to focus on the following aspects of the legislation:</font></div>
<ul style="margin:0px;padding-left:36pt">
<font color="#222222">
<li style="margin-bottom:10pt">the continued effectiveness of the scheme, taking into account changes in the use of technology since the passage of the Bill;</li><li style="margin-bottom:10pt">the appropriateness of the dataset and retention period;</li><li style="margin-bottom:10pt">costs, including ongoing costs borne by service providers for compliance with the regime, any potential improvements to oversight, including in relation to journalist information warrants;</li><li style="margin-bottom:10pt">any regulations and determinations made under the regime;</li><li style="margin-bottom:10pt">the number of complaints about the scheme to relevant bodies, including the Commonwealth Ombudsman and the Inspector-General of Intelligence and Security;</li><li style="margin-bottom:10pt">security requirements in relation to data stored under the regime, including in relation to data stored offshore;</li><li style="margin-bottom:10pt">any access by agencies to retained telecommunications data outside the TIA Act framework, such as under the Telecommunications Act 1997; and</li><li style="margin-bottom:10pt">developments in international jurisdictions since the passage of the Bill.</li></font>
