Australians deserve to have control over their personal identity information and how it’s used.

That’s why we're launching IDLock, a new service through myGov that will let Aussies block, unblock and monitor the use of their identity documents.

Importantly, this will give people greater protection from scams, identity theft and the impacts of data breaches.

Today Australians mark National Flag Day.

This is a significant milestone, with 2026 commemorating the 125th anniversary of the official raising of the Australian National Flag.

National Flag Day is an opportunity for Australians to learn more about the history of our national symbols and reflect on the people, achievements and values that unite us.

Happy National Wattle Day!

From the green and gold of our sporting teams, to the symbols we see every day, wattle is a reminder of the beauty, resilience and character of Australia.

This Wattle Day, celebrate by wearing, sharing or planting a wattle.

Today, Australia's new emergency warning system - AusAlert - will be tested for the first time. AusAlerts contain important information when it comes to keeping you safe and informed during disasters.

At 1:30pm ACST, a test Critical Alert will be sent to all compatible devices in Australia - even if they're on silent or Do Not Disturb.

If the alert could put you or someone you know at risk, including anyone with a hidden safety phone, switch the device off or put it into aeroplane mode before this time.
