I14Provision of Level 1 disclosure to third parties
1
Where a Level 1 disclosure is provided to an applicant by using electronic communications, the applicant may, within the prescribed period, either—
a
request that the Scottish Ministers arrange for the disclosure to be made available by electronic communications to such other person or persons as the applicant may specify, or
b
notify the Scottish Ministers that the applicant intends to make a Level 1 review application under section 5 in relation to the disclosure.
2
If the applicant makes a request under subsection (1)(a), the Scottish Ministers must comply with the request.
3
Where notification has been given under subsection (1)(b), the notification is to be treated as withdrawn if, before the end of the prescribed period, the applicant makes a request under subsection (1)(a).
4
If no request or notification is made or given under subsection (1) within the prescribed period, at the end of that period the disclosure lapses and nothing further may be done in relation to it.
5
Subsection (4) does not prevent the applicant subsequently making another application for a Level 1 disclosure.

Otherwise, the Scottish Ministers must not make the disclosure available to any other person.
