Getting ready for the PRIS Act

Turning policy into action for WA Government Agencies

The Privacy and Responsible Information Sharing (PRIS) Act takes effect on 1 July 2026. For WA public sector organisations, that means real changes to how personal information is managed, governed, and accounted for.

Most organisations know PRIS is coming. Fewer know where they actually stand. This session, hosted by Grace Information and RecordPoint at the State Library of Western Australia, is designed to close that gap, with expert speakers, an intimate government only audience, and time set aside for real questions.

On the day

We’ll open with coffee and something to eat so there’s time to settle in and connect before the session begins. Morning tea rounds out the morning once the formal program wraps.

9:15am – Arrival and coffee
9:30am – Presentations and discussion
11:00am – Open Q&A
11:20am – Morning tea
12:00pm – Close

Hear from those closest to the legislation

We’re joined by two speakers at the centre of PRIS implementation:

You’ll hear how PRIS applies in practice, its impact on FOI, where organisations are most vulnerable, how expectations are shifting, and what good looks like beyond policy.

From legislation to action

Subject matter experts will also walk through a practical approach to PRIS readiness, covering:

Understanding what information your organisation actually holds
Building governance that works in practice, not just on paper
Reducing risk and improving breach readiness

Taking clear next steps back to your team

What you’ll leave with

A clearer picture of PRIS expectations, FOI impacts and where organisations commonly fall short
A practical starting point for your own readiness work
Time to ask questions and work through real scenarios with experts and peers
