I’ve been working with the Department of Internal Affairs, and the Privacy Commissioner, on how the government uses data, and analytical tools like algorithms.

Ok, so I'm in the middle of data migration for the new data.govt.nz open data portal at the moment and thought I'd take a moment to highlight something that:
The New Zealand Government Open Access and Licensing framework (NZGOAL) is all-of-government guidance for agencies to follow when releasing copyright works and non-copyright/public domain material for reuse by others. Use this guidance when you intend to release open data.
A first-of-its-kind report provides valuable insights into the use of algorithms in government agencies.
Stats NZ and members of the open data community celebrated open data day by witnessing the Minister of Statistics and Government Chief Data Steward co-sign New Zealand’s Open Data Charter letter.
What is open data? Learn about the open data toolkit, open licences, open accessibility, and human- and machine-readability.
The GCDS is responding to the recommendations in the algorithm assessment report.
