Article 62 Publication of decisions

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

1.

F1The competent authority must publish on its official website any decision imposing an administrative sanction or other measure for an infringement of this Regulation without undue delay after the person sanctioned is informed of that decision. The publication shall include at least information on the type and nature of the infringement and the identity of a natural or legal person on whom the sanction has been imposed.

Where the decision to impose a sanction or other measure is subject to an appeal before the relevant judicial or other relevant authorities, F2the competent authority must, without undue delay, publish on its official website information on the appeal status and outcome thereof. Moreover, any decision annulling a previous decision to impose a sanction or a measure shall also be published.

Where the publication of the identity of the legal persons or of the personal data of the natural persons is considered by the competent authority to be disproportionate following a case-by-case assessment conducted on the proportionality of the publication of such data, or where publication jeopardises the stability of financial markets or an ongoing investigation, F3the competent authority must do one of the following:

(a)

delay the publication of the decision to impose the sanction or other measure until the moment when the reasons for non-publication cease to exist;

(b)

publish the decision to impose the sanction or other measure on an anonymous basis in a manner which is in conformity with national law, if such anonymous publication ensures effective protection of the personal data;

(c)

not publish the decision to impose a sanction or other measure at all in the event that the options set out in points (a) and (b) above are considered to be insufficient to ensure:

  1. (i)

    that the stability of financial markets would not be put in jeopardy;

  2. (ii)

    the proportionality of the publication of such decisions with regard to measures which are deemed to be of a minor nature.

In the case of a decision to publish a sanction or other measure on an anonymous basis, the publication of the relevant data may be postponed for a reasonable period if it is envisaged that within that period the reasons for anonymous publication will cease to exist.

F5The competent authority shall ensure that any publication, in accordance with this Article, shall remain on F6its official website for a period of at least five years after its publication. Personal data contained in the publication shall be kept on the official website of the competent authority only for the period necessary under the applicable data protection rules.
