7  Simplified outline of this Part

      The Australian Immunisation Register is established to keep information about vaccinations of individuals.
      The purposes of the register relate to supporting Australian vaccination programs, and vaccination matters more broadly.
      Recognised vaccination providers are required to report certain information in relation to certain relevant vaccinations that have been administered. This information will be included in the register.
      A recognised vaccination provider may be required to give information, or be given a formal warning, if the provider is not complying, or has not complied, with the requirement to report.
      Individuals can opt out from receiving certain information from the register. They can also request for their information in the register not to be disclosed for certain purposes.
      Payments relating to vaccinations may be made on behalf of the Commonwealth.
