A.P.F.'s PATRONS

Further details on the Patrons and the 20-strong Advisory Panel are provided here.

"Australians need protection because corporate interests routinely infringe our privacy, including by taking advantage of new technologies such as social media. The [new privacy tort] should provide a remedy for, and a deterrent against, a person or business breaching our privacy for commercial gain, or acting negligently so as to expose our personal information and financial details to criminals"
(Prof) George Williams, UNSW,
and APF Advisory Panel Member,
Canberra Times, 26 March 2013
