I move amendment No. 82:

In page 111, line 13, after “the” where it firstly occurs to insert “complainant and the”.

This amendment deals with the question of who receives the information of an investigation report. I am suggesting that the final investigation report, which is prepared by the Data Commissioner, should not simply be shared with the controller or processor to whom the investigation relates but potentially with the complainant also. Amendment No. 83 is similar. If an individual triggers an investigation into, for example, a data controller and the use of their data and there is an investigation and a report, they would be able to know to some extent what was in the report of the investigation its consequences. It is to ensure that should the individual be a complainant, he or she is kept informed of the resolution that might have emerged.
