The Debate
What different members said when this bill was debated:
Jacqui Munro LIB
“I lead for the Opposition in debate on the Identity Protection and Recovery Bill 2025. The Opposition supports the bill, but its effective implementation requires ongoing scrutiny, particularly given the reliance on regulations to operationalise the intent of the changes, and we support the intent of the changes.”
Abigail Boyd GRN
“Noting the time, I will be brief. On behalf of The Greens, I indicate our support for the Identity Protection and Recovery Bill 2025. I do not intend to repeat the details of the bill, which have been well covered by others. I will comment on some of the concerns and issues that we were particularly focused on when the bill first came to us a little while back.”
Bob Nanva ALP
“I am delighted to speak in support of the Identity Protection and Recovery Bill 2025. The bill establishes an Act that provides a core government provider of identity protection and recovery services and fraud control services within New South Wales. The expanded identity protection and fraud control functions in the bill are more than timely.”
John Graham ALP
“I particularly thank the Hon. Bob Nanva for his contribution, but I also thank the Hon. Jacqui Munro and Ms Abigail Boyd. The members raised some issues of significance, so I will deal with those. I recognise that the Hon. Jacqui Munro thanked former Minister Dominello. I place on record my thanks for Minister Dominello’s establishment of the scheme.”

Identity Protection and Recovery Bill 2025
Mr JIHAD DIB, Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government — 2025-05-06
This bill will create a new Act to establish a core government provider of identity protection and recovery services and certain fraud control services within New South Wales. The bill will also provide necessary statutory exemptions from New South Wales laws that limit disclosure of information. The identity protection and recovery and fraud control functions under the bill are conferred on the Secretary of the Department of Customer Service, which I will call DCS. The secretary’s functions are proposed to be delegated to the ID Support NSW business unit in DCS.
