We have confirmed that the definition of "relevant body" contained in the legislation can include religious bodies and other private entities. This means they can be designated as secondary information sources. What we are talking about here is the ability to engage with a parish church in Blanchardstown or Kilkenny to see if we can look at its register to find out if there is information available on a particular individual. Restricting the type of valuable information the tracing service could secure from that would negatively impact on its ability to undertake tracing.
