Regulation 12 Data protectionI1

This regulation applies to a duty or power to process information that is imposed or conferred by these Regulations.

Nothing in these Regulations requires or authorises the processing of information which would contravene the data protection legislation, but the duty or power is to be taken into account in determining whether the processing would contravene that legislation.

In this regulation, “data protection legislation” has the same meaning as in section 3 of the Data Protection Act 2018^f1.
