Intelligence data review
320 Intelligence data review
(1) The parliamentary commissioner must conduct an annual review of
intelligence data in the possession of the commission and the police service
(each an
"agency" ).
(2) The purposes of the review are— (a) to consider whether
intelligence data held by each agency is appropriately held by the agency
having regard to the agency’s functions; and
(b) to consider whether there
is unnecessary duplication of intelligence data held by the agencies; and
(c)
to consider whether the agencies are working cooperatively as partners to
achieve optimal use of— (i) available intelligence data; and
(ii) the
resources used to collect, collate or record the data; and
(d) to consider
whether an agency is placing inappropriate restrictions on access to
intelligence data by the other agency.
(3) The parliamentary commissioner—
(a) must prepare written advice on the review containing the parliamentary
commissioner’s findings and recommendations, including, if appropriate, a
recommendation about removing a restriction placed by an agency on access to
intelligence data by the other agency; and
(b) must give the advice to the
chairperson of the commission, the commissioner of police and the
parliamentary committee; and
(c) may authorise the chairperson of the
commission or the commissioner of police to disclose the advice or relevant
parts of the advice to officers of the agencies for discussion and
implementation at officer level.
(4) The advice must be prepared in general
terms in a way that does not disclose intelligence data or other confidential
information.
(5) The parliamentary commissioner must, when preparing the
advice, have regard to the need for the investigation of corrupt conduct to be
undertaken independently of general law enforcement.
(6) A review must be
done as soon as practicable after the end of each financial year, and within 4
months after the end of the financial year.
