As a reuser of government data (Annandale Short Walk Books
http://ramin.com.au/walks/) I welcome this:
Public data. The data that is produced and held by the Australian
Government is a
national resource with the potential to help grow the economy, stimulate
innovation, improve service delivery and enable more targeted policy
outcomes.
The Prime Minister’s December 2015 Australian Government Public Data
Policy
Statement is an important step towards the better management of this
national
resource. It commits Australian Government agencies to optimise the
use and reuse
of public data; to release non-sensitive data as ‘open’ by default;
and to collaborate
with the private and research sectors to share valuable public data
for the benefit of
the Australian public. Requests for access to public data can be made via
data.gov.au.

As would Google:
A data-sharing agreement obtained by New Scientist shows that Google DeepMind's
collaboration with the NHS goes far beyond what it has publicly announced
