09 Practice Exams

[plumbob]

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone had any 09' Practice Exams they were willing to share?
I would be in your debt if anyone could.
I've done the CSE 09' but that was my for my schools official IT:A practice exam.
I've done all the papers in that awesome IT:A Post with the archive of exams. (Located here: http://vcenotes.com/forum/index.php/topic,5259.0.html)

Thanks!

Vadnal kindly sent me the exam to include in the main pack that plumbob posted the link to. It'll be up in a bit, but I can just forward the link he gave me to you.

Hey guys,

Has anyone else done the 09' Insight exam and found it really dodgy?

I might have a misundstanding or something.. So I may aswell clear it up.

Question 2 of MCQ.

The answer is A. But isn't digital data only affected by the Coypright act 2000(Digital agenda)?

Question 3d short answer.

I thought that the Privacy act(1988) only affected government organizations?

[codykm]

for 3d, the privacy act affects government and private organizations

First off, I can't help you with Question 2 as I do not have the Insight paper. Please let me know what the question is.

As for question 3D, there are two sets of principles in the Privacy Act (Cth) 1998, the Information Privacy Principles (IPPs) and National Privacy Principles (NPPs). Off the top of my head (and a skim read of the Act), the IPPs apply to any 'agency' (s16). Where an agency is:
                     (a)  a Minister; or
                     (b)  a Department; or
                     (c)  a body (whether incorporated or not), or a tribunal, established or appointed for a public purpose by or under a Commonwealth enactment, not being:
                             (i)  an incorporated company, society or association; or
                             (ii)  an organisation that is registered under the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009 or a branch of such an organisation; or
                     (d)  a body established or appointed by the Governor‑General, or by a Minister, otherwise than by or under a Commonwealth enactment; or
                     (e)  a person holding or performing the duties of an office established by or under, or an appointment made under, a Commonwealth enactment, other than a person who, by virtue of holding that office, is the Secretary of a Department; or
                     (f)  a person holding or performing the duties of an appointment, being an appointment made by the Governor‑General, or by a Minister, otherwise than under a Commonwealth enactment; or
                     (g)  a federal court; or
                     (h)  the Australian Federal Police; or
                     (i)  an eligible case manager; or
                     (j)  the nominated AGHS company; or
                     (k)  an eligible hearing service provider.

The NPPs seem to apply to any other organisation that is not the above (i.e., the private sector). However, you must remember that the Privacy Act (Cth) 1988 only has jurisdiction in respect to federal government agencies and 'organisations' (business with a turnover of over $3 million, among other things). The other act is the Information Privacy Act (Vic) 2000, which is relevant to Victorian government and local governments. I'm not sure if you cover that act though.

From M.Kelly's website:

Privacy Act 1988 - affects

• federal government organisations (e.g. Medicare, tax office) and private companies working for them
• non-government organisations turning over $3 million a year or more
• non-government organsisations of any size that trade in personal information for profit
• non-government organisations that store health or medical information on people (not including their own employees)

Thanks for the help!

Below is question 2.

The Copyright Act (1968) might come into effect if
A. you copied Britney Spears’ Greatest Hits CD and sold it.
B. you stole Walt Disney’s idea of a talking mouse and made a movie about it.
C. you copy someone’s invention.
D. you copy someone’s personal information from a database without permission.

It's obviously A, but doesn't that come under the Copyright amendment act (2000)? Not the Copyright act 1968?

Remember that the Copyright Act 1968 now includes the amendment of 2000 (Digital Agenda). Don't refer to that act separately now.

Thanks for the help guys, much appreciated.

A bit of legalese, but Amendment Acts are acts that amend the original Act. So, basically, the Copyright Act (Cth) 1968 contains all amendments made through acts of Parliament over the years incorporated into it.

This is the same for every act.
