* Please note that there is an error in paragraph 7(3)(d) of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) which appears on the Department of Justice Web site (English version only). It is unamended and should read:
"(3)For the purpose of clause 4.3 of Schedule 1, and despite the note that accompanies that clause, an organization may disclose personal information without the knowledge or consent of the individual only if the disclosure is
(d) made on the initiative of the organization to an investigative body, a government institution or part of a government institution and the organization
(i) has reasonable grounds to believe that the information relates to a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada, a province or a foreign jurisdiction that has been, is being or is about to be committed, or
(ii) suspects that the information relates to national security, the defence of Canada or the conduct of international affairs;"
