Your responsibilities
Agencies must designate accountability for implementing the policy to accountable official(s) (AOs), who must:
- be accountable for implementation of the policy within their agencies
- notify the Digital Transformation Agency (DTA) where the agency has identified a new high-risk use case by emailing ai@dta.gov.au
- be a contact point for whole-of-government AI coordination
- engage in whole-of-government AI forums and processes
- keep up to date with changing requirements as they evolve over time.
The policy does not make AOs responsible for the agency’s AI use cases however an agency may decide to apply additional responsibilities to their chosen AOs.
