Precautions

(1) This section applies if—
(a) an access application is made to an agency or Minister for a document containing personal information for a person (the

(b) disclosure of the information would, on balance, be contrary to the public interest having regard to the Right to Information Act, section 49 , or the information would be exempt information, if the application were made by a person other than the first person or the first person’s agent.
(2) The agency or Minister must ensure, by the adoption of appropriate procedures, that any information intended for the applicant is received—
