TERRORISM (COMMUNITY PROTECTION) ACT 2003 - SECT 22EN

Authorised discloser may require information from another authorised discloser

    (1)     An authorised discloser may request that another authorised discloser disclose to them information that is about a relevant person, and to which that other discloser has access, for a purpose that is authorised in respect of the relevant person.

Note to s. 22EN(1) inserted by No. 2/2024 s. 20(1).

Note

Section 22ERD(1) prohibits a central contact from making (but not receiving or complying with) a request under this provision.

    (2)     An authorised discloser who makes a request under subsection (1) may disclose information that is about a relevant person to the discloser to whom the request is made for the purpose of enabling or facilitating the identification and provision of the requested information.

    (3)     An authorised discloser to whom a request is made must comply with that request.

Notes to s. 22EN(3) inserted by No. 2/2024 s. 20(2).

Notes

1     If the request is made by a member of the CVE MAP, the authorised discloser may disclose the information to that member's central contact instead—see section 22ERC.

2     If the authorised discloser is a member of the CVE MAP, the member may arrange for their central contact to make the disclosure—see section 22ERB.

S. 22EN(4) amended by No. 2/2024 s. 40(3).

    (4)     However, in disclosing information under subsection (2) or (3), an authorised discloser must not disclose information if doing so is prohibited by section 22EK.

    (5)     Despite anything in another provision of this section, a person who is an authorised discloser because they are a program provider must not—

        (a)     make a request under subsection (1) for information about a relevant person; or

        (b)     comply with a request under subsection (1) for information about a relevant person

unless they are a program provider in respect of that relevant person.

Note

Section 22AE sets out when a program provider is a program provider in respect of a relevant person.
