13  Simplified outline of this Chapter

      The Digital ID Regulator may, on application, accredit certain kinds of entities as accredited attribute service providers, accredited identity exchange providers, accredited identity service providers or entities that provide, or propose to provide, services of a kind prescribed by the Accreditation Rules.
      An entity's accreditation is subject to conditions. Some conditions are imposed by the Act and others may be imposed by the Digital ID Regulator or the Accreditation Rules. Conditions may include restrictions relating to the services an entity is accredited to provide, the manner in which those services must be provided and the kinds of restricted attributes of individuals an entity is authorised to collect or disclose.
      The conditions imposed by the Digital ID Regulator on an entity's accreditation, and the entity's accreditation itself, can be varied or revoked. Accreditation can also be suspended.
      The Minister may give directions to the Digital ID Regulator regarding the accreditation of an entity if, for reasons of security, the Minister considers it appropriate to do so. The Digital ID Regulator must comply with such directions.
      An accredited entity must deactivate a digital ID of an individual if requested to do so, and must comply with requirements relating to the accessibility and useability of accredited services.
