The Privacy Commissioner's pushing for strong incentives against cyber criminals in the Manage My Health data breach.
Michael Webster's unveiled the initial Terms of Reference for his inquiry into the data breach affecting 127 thousand users that came to light early this month.
The first phase will focus on the scale of the breach, its impacts, and Manage My Health's responsibilities and safeguards.
Webster told Mike Hosking he's concerned nothing will come from his recommendations on how to prevent this from happening again.
He says unlike other privacy regulators around the world, we don't have the ability to seek financial penalties or fines for those who don't do enough to protect our personal information.
