Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

General Scheme of the Communications (Retention of Data) Bill 2017: Discussion

9:00 am

Mr. Dermot Woods:

At head 15 the post factonotification arrangement is set out. This follows directly from the Tele2 judgement. An arrangement will be put in place whereby people who have been the subject of a request will be informed once certain requirements are satisfied.

However, if an individual was the subject of an access request and nothing came from the process and there was nothing further to be engaged in, arrangements would be put in place. The Minister will make regulations providing for information to be given to such individuals.
