Data Protection Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report Stage (Resumed) (16 May 2018)

Charles Flanagan: I note the points made by Deputy O'Callaghan. I am of the view that my amendments Nos. 86 and 89, by and large, deal with the issues raised by Deputies Wallace and Clare Daly on Committee Stage and would obviate the need to proceed any further with amendments Nos. 87, 88, 90 and 91. I have gone as far as I can on this matter. The issues raised on Committee Stage were not insignificant...

On amendment No. 94, section 90 gives effect to Article 14 of the directive. A...

Data Protection Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report Stage (Resumed) (16 May 2018)

Charles Flanagan: I do not accept Deputy Clare Daly's point that Government amendment No. 93 may bring about changes to amendments that were accepted on Committee Stage. There is a duplication of text in section 89(2)(f)(iv), which reads, "such further information as necessary to enable the data subject to exercise his or her rights under this Part". This text is included in the beginning of section...

Data Protection Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report Stage (Resumed) (16 May 2018)

Charles Flanagan: The purpose of amendments Nos. 100, 114 and 117, as tabled by Deputies Clare Daly and Wallace, is to allow not-for-profit bodies, organisations and associations to exercise data subject rights on behalf of individuals before the Data Protection Commissioner and the courts but without the permission or agreement of those individuals. That would amount to an extraordinary change in our law. ...

Data Protection Bill 2018 [Seanad]: Report Stage (Resumed) (16 May 2018)

In other cases relating to other aspects of the legislation, an individual can claim and be awarded compensation.
