[LINK] Census 2016 Senate Inquiry

[Tom Worthington]

The Senate Standing Committees on Economics are holding "An inquiry into 
the preparation, administration and management of the 2016 Census by the 
Australian Bureau of Statistics": 
http://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Committees/Senate/Economics/2016Census

I suggest the Australian Computer Society (ACS) join with Internet 
Australia (the Australian Chapter of the Internet Society) on this and 
try to widen the discussion to cover Internet security more generally. 
ACS and IA need not agree on every aspect, buy could loosely coordinate, 
as was done for the Internet regulation inquiries of the 1990s, as 
described by Chen (2000, p. 161).
