Paragraph 5: Publication
118.This paragraph enables a relevant minister to publish a report on data matching exercises, notwithstanding the limits on disclosure under paragraph 4. Sub-paragraph (2) provides that a report that is published may not include information relating to a particular body or person if (a) the body or person is the subject of any data included in the data matching exercise; and (b) the body or person can be identified from the information; and (c) the information is not otherwise in the public domain. Sub-paragraph (3) provides that a report may be published in such a manner as the minister considers appropriate for bringing it to the attention of those who may be interested.
