Sharing public safety information—non-territory agencies
123ABA Sharing public safety information—non-territory agencies
A public safety agency may give public safety information to a non‑territory agency if the public safety agency is satisfied that the information relates to—
a function of the non-territory agency; and
compliance with a law of another jurisdiction that makes provision for public safety.
For how documents may be given, see the Legislation Act, pt 19.5.
A public safety agency may impose conditions on how the non‑territory agency uses, stores or shares the public safety information.
However, a public safety agency must not give public safety information under this section unless the public safety agency is satisfied that—
the non-territory agency that receives the information (the receiving agency) will use the information to exercise a function the receiving agency has under a law mentioned in subsection (1) (b); and
giving the information will not unreasonably compromise the exercise of a function under a territory law.
