Consumer Data Right | Data Recipient Workshop | Sydney
Date and time
Location
Data61
Level 4 13 Garden Street Eveleigh, NSW 2015 AustraliaDescription
Data61 is supporting the development of API standards to help Australian consumers provide trusted organisations of their choice with access to their data, in safe, customer-friendly ways. Its first focus is the banking sector. The aim? A more innovative, open banking sector with consumers able to make informed choices about their finances: whether that’s using product comparison services, getting personalised budgeting and accounting support or making decisions about the bank that’s best for them.
The Engineering Working Group will be focusing on delivering usable software components (Reference Implementations) and system artefacts (Sandbox).
About the Workshop
Each organisation participating in the Consumer Data Right have different perspectives on how they are developing their technology infrastructure. These can be loosely defined as being a Data Provider, a Data Recipient or Both. In an effort to ensure balanced participation the workshops are intended to individually focus with these two lenses in mind so that suggestions, contributions and discussion can be considered in context to deliver a useful result. This means that a portion of content from each of the initial presentations is likely to overlap (and both will be published publicly).
Consequently, where each individual deems relevant, we encourage participants consider participation in both workshops. We will be distributing a more detailed agenda soon.
The purpose of this workshop (the Data Recipient Workshop) is to identify, discuss and consult on how Data61 as the interim standards body can provide the lowest friction technical pathway for potential Data Recipients to utilise the emerging standard. It will also consider the pathways that Data61 intends to deliver and promote with relation to the delivery of Sandbox capability.
The purpose of the Data Holder Workshop is to identify, discuss and consult on how Data61 as the interim standards body can promote efficient implementation within a Holders environment. This will not only consider the server side deliverables but also conformance and security systems implementations. It may also consider how a Data Holder can promote innovation within a Sandbox delivery context. To register your attendance for the Data Holder Workshop please click here.
Stuart Low, who is leading the Engineering work stream, will facilitate the conversation.

Organised by
The Australian government has introduced a Consumer Data Right giving consumers greater control over their data. Part of this right requires the creation of common data standards that make it easier and safer for consumers to access data held about them by businesses, and – if they choose to – share this data via application programming interfaces (APIs) with trusted third parties.
The Data Standards Body (DSB) has been established by the Australian Government to deliver open data standards that support the CDR in empowering Australian consumers to share their data simply and safely with organisations of their choosing. The DSB is responsible for assisting Mr Andrew Stevens, the Data Standards Chair, in the development of common data standards to allow Australians to access data held about them by businesses and direct its safe transfer to others.
The work of standards development is conducted in close consultation with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) as lead regulator of the Consumer Data Right, supported by the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).
The Consumer Data Right is intended to apply sector by sector across the whole economy, beginning in the banking sector. The next step for Consumer Data Right is in the energy and telecommunications sectors with other sectors to follow.
A number of working groups have been established to support the DSB in designing and testing the open standards it develops. Input provided by the Data Standards Advisory Committee and various working groups, alongside draft guidance materials, API specifications, consumer experience (CX) requirements, and implementation materials are being shared on this website and on GitHub.
