-----under the data protection directive 95/46/EC. Unlike Romania, Ireland, under the Social Welfare Consolidation Act 2005 at section 262, sets out that we share the use of our PSI data and that it is restricted to public service bodies specified in law or their agents. Unlike Romania, Ireland has legislated specifically to restrict the scope of the obligations and rights contained in that particular directive. I would take issue with the witnesses' interpretation of the Bara judgment and their basis for saying we are in contravention of European law.
