Petition request
That the House of Representatives urge the Government to commission an independent review of privacy, security, and civil-liberty risks in digital ID systems, and to suspend plans for any centralised or mandatory digital ID until full public consultation occurs.
Petition reason
I believe that centralised digital IDs could enable tracking, profiling, or data misuse, threatening privacy, freedom, and resilience. In my opinion, an independent review should assess impacts under the Privacy Act 2020 and NZ Bill of Rights Act 1990. Until then, I believe the Government must pause any rollout or funding.
