As of December 2025, the Australian Government has transitioned to Version 2.0 of its "Policy for the responsible use of AI in government." Managed by the Digital Transformation Agency (DTA), the framework establishes mandatory requirements for non-corporate Commonwealth entities. Key features include the introduction of an AI impact assessment tool, the creation of agency-wide use case registers, and mandatory staff training. While the policy includes national security exemptions for the defense and intelligence sectors, it aims to standardize transparency and risk management across general government operations.
