The purpose of this amendment is to make provision for the supervisory authority in relation to the confidentiality of information it obtains in the exercise of its functions. It also identifies information obtained pursuant to this Bill that may be disclosed to State bodies and statutory authorities such as the Minister for Finance, the Garda Síochána, etc.. A breach of confidentiality of information committed by a person associated with the supervisory authority such as staff, advisers, etc., is deemed to be a category two offence.
