Summary

Introduced with the Australian Immunisation Register (Consequential and Transitional Provisions) Bill 2015, the bill establishes the Australian Childhood Immunisation Register to collect and record vaccinations given to individuals under the age of 20 years and provides for: the type of information that may be collected for the purposes of the register; the disclosure and confidentiality of information; and the Commonwealth to make payments to recognised vaccination providers when they notify the register of a vaccination.
