Driver's licence photos to be shared nationally
Published 3 days, 6 hours ago
Description
New South Wales is introducing legislation to share driver's licence photos on a national database as part of measures to combat fraud and organised crime. The proposed laws include facial verification to prevent stolen identities from being used to access financial accounts, alongside expanded police powers to tackle criminal activity. Privacy advocates and the Greens have raised concerns about the implications for personal data protection.
