    TOPICLocal and Central Fraud Prevention and Detection - The Survey results

    In September 2024 as part part of a research project being conducted through Otago Polytech, Local and Central Government agencies were asked to complete a survey on their Fraud Prevention and Detection activities.  Come and here the results from the 100+ responses received. The results may be surprising and it is something you won't want to miss.

Prior to this, Ian was the National Manager, Provider Assurance Group at the Ministry of Education for around 3½  years, where his team was responsible for preventing and detecting fraud in the $2.4B / annum early learning sector.

    Ian last presented to our group in December 2023 and has now completed a Master of Professional Practice with his thesis focused on fraud prevention and detection practices.

    TOPIC: Privacy Update: Navigating the new indirect collection rules under IPP3A

    The Privacy Amendment Bill introduces a new information Privacy Principle (IPP3A), which is focused on increasing transparency about the indirect collection of personal information. It is expected to be passed into law shortly and come into force later this year. 

    In this update, we will cover:

    • Practical implications of IPP3A for ACFE members
    • Impacts on privacy policies and agreements with third parties
    • Key exceptions and how they will apply in various contexts
    • Guidance from international examples of similar requirements
