12 Whistleblowers and Data Protection Jeanne Kelly, Partner e: 12
13 The Data Protection Angle Why is this controversial at all? Subject access rights (she said WHAT about me?!) Fairness in data collection (Data Protection Acts) 13
14 The Data Protection Angle Whistleblowing not new Sarbanes-Oxley Act (US) 2002 Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act 2010 (incentives!) Our experience: how does it become an Irish compliance issue? 14
15 Whistleblowing Hotlines EU/US tension in approach And: No EU passporting possible Do you seek forgiveness, or ask permission?! CNIL France Dassaut Systemes McDonalds France +Exide Tech Germany?(Wal-Mart) Sweden? (Key execs only) 15
16 Data Protection Issues Article 29 Working Party: who are they and what solutions had they? WP 117 Whether w/b hotlines can co-exist with DP laws? Focus on financial issues/crimes Transfers abroad Fair processing Proportionality Consequences for the data subject 16
17 Data Protection Issues WP 117 Privacy by design Limits: who can use, who can be reported If no evidence, destroy data after 2 months If wrongdoing uncovered, keep data until end of resulting process Regulator clearance may be needed Secure processing transfer contracts Local filtration 17
18 Data Protection Issues Irish Data Protection Commissioner Guidance (March 2006) Focus on Issues not Individuals Consider the DP implications Data minimisation approach No encouragement of anonymous whistleblowing Tell your employees Anti-blowback measures Transfers abroad 18
19 The Protected Disclosures Bill and Data Protection Does it cut through the data privacy issues? Not a defence to a DP breach to say complied with the new Bill. What happens if whistle-blower identity is revealed? (Section 16) 19
20 Takeaways S.21 Public bodies must design schemes to deal. Those schemes must still be DP complaint. You may need to re-calibrate your existing DP documents If outsourcing, robust contracts needed. Approach in a privacy by design and HR compliance by design manner 20
21 Dealing with a Whistleblowing Investigation by a Third Party Catherine Allen, Partner e: callen@mhc.ie 21
22 Why will Third Parties be Involved? Section 7 of the Protected Disclosures Bill Prescribed persons: An Garda Síochána; Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement; Health and Safety Authority; Health Information and Quality Authority; National Consumer Agency? 22
23 Why will Third Parties be Involved? Section 19 of the Criminal Justice Act 2011 Mandatory reporting for certain types of offences Applies to everyone No express defence of legal professional privilege Awaiting Law Society Guidance 23
24 Third Party Investigations May be happy to rely on an internal investigation pending developments Preservation of evidence Witness interviews privilege against self-incrimination Separate legal representation may be necessary 24
25 Third Party Investigations External investigation May have to be dealt with in a similar fashion to a dawn raid Expensive and lengthy process. Investigators have to produce a: Coherent, Accessible, and Traceable record of the files of and interactions between suspects. 25
26 BCCI Investigation Largest bank fraud in history (over 3,000 criminal customers, money laundering, terrorist financing etc) 100 million documents found in London 9,000 boxes containing several million pages of documents (some handwritten notes in various Arabic dialects) found in New York and Miami Even more documents in the Grand Cayman Islands And most of the documentation had in fact been shredded, destroyed or removed from the bank s head office in London and flown to Abu Dhabi in
27 Corporate Criminal Liability Absolute / strict liability offences Identification doctrine 27
