Domestic, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence Agency Bill 2023: Report and Final Stages
Dail Éireann — 2023-11-08
============================================================

Aodhán Ó Ríordáin (LAB), Dublin Bay North

I move amendment No. 2:
In page 31, between lines 17 and 18, to insert the following:
“(5) Nothing in this section authorises—
(a) a service provider,
(b) the Agency, or
(c) the Minister,
to process personal data (within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016) for purposes that are not compatible with the purposes for which the data were originally obtained.”.
The amendment relates to data protection. Safe Ireland asked us to table it. It proposes to insert:
"(5) Nothing in this section authorises—
(a) a service provider,
(b) the Agency, or
(c) the Minister,
to process personal data (within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016) for purposes that are not compatible with the purposes for which the data were originally obtained.".
It relates to privacy and protection of data, which is an obvious concern in the context of the establishment of the agency.
