Communication to other public bodies Communication of data to public bodies should be permissible only if, in a particular case: there exists a clear legal obligation or authorization, or with the authorization of the supervisory authority; or these data are essential for the recipient to fulfil his own lawful task, provided that the aim of the collection or processing to be carried out by the recipient is not incompatible with the original aim and that it is not precluded by the legal obligations of the communicating body. Communication is exceptionally permissible if, in a particular case: communication is undoubtedly in the interest of the data subject and the data subject has consented or if circumstances are such as to allow a clear presumption of such consent; or communication is necessary so as to prevent a serious and imminent danger.
