Non-Disclosure Provisions Under the Freedom of Information Act: Discussion with Information Commissioner

1:35 pm

Ms Emily O'Reilly:

Again, I imagine that would be more of a data protection issue. On the information getting out under FOI legislation, the very strong exemptions in respect of personal information would apply. If people had issues with bodies having information they should not have, it would clearly come under data protection provisions regarding the unauthorised use of personal information.
