e. What are the privacy measures apparent from the solution?
f. Consider the ethical, legal and regulatory principles, best practices and laws related to the solution in the Australian context. From a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 being the highest), evaluate the compliance based on the information available.
g. Has the solution been actively taken up by the proposed users? What may be the deterrents?
h. From a wider global research, are there any comparative solutions available that can be better used instead of this solution? Can these be used in the Australian context?
