conclusion We are concerned that clause 35(7) and (8), deeming transfer of personal data to third countries and international organisations to be necessary for important reasons of public interest, inappropriately disapplies the normal safeguards in data protection legislation when data is transferred to third countries. recommendation Whilst recognising the need for the Home Office to act with expedition in these circumstances, and the potential national security concerns, we recommend the removal of clause 35(7) and (8) to ensure that the normal safeguards apply.
