Background
The Directive on Automated Decision-Making (directive) sets requirements for federal institutions to ensure that the use of AI or other automated systems in making or supporting administrative decision-making is compatible with the core principles of administrative law such as transparency, accountability, legality and procedural fairness. The Directive is supported by the Algorithmic Impact Assessment Tool, an online questionnaire which helps departments understand and manage the risks associated with automated decision systems.
The directive came into effect in April 2019 and applies to systems developed or procured after April 2020.
