New Zealand's Privacy Commissioner drafts new biometric rules for public feedback.
New Zealand's Office of the Privacy Commissioner has issued a draft of new rules for biometric technology use, seeking public feedback until May 8th.

The draft rules address issues such as demonstrating benefits outweigh risks and informing individuals when their biometrics are collected.
