Privacy Commissioner - Te Mana Matapono Matatapu

Post-Compulsory Education Unique Identifier Code

This code provides certain agencies involved in the post-compulsory education area with a potential exemption from information privacy principle 12(2), when those agencies reassign a unique identifier to people in this area.

The Privacy Commissioner proposes to revoke the Post-Compulsory Education Unique Identifier Code 2001, as she believes it has been superseded by Part 30 of the Education Act 1989.  The Commissioner is consulting on the proposed revocation.

The consultation discussion document can be downloaded below or by emailing code@privacy.org.nz, or by calling 0800 803 909.

Submissions on the proposal to revoke the 2001 Code are now closed.
