Statement
We would like to thank the Court for the consideration given to this case. We are, however, disappointed by this decision.
When the Data Protection Commission defers for five years an investigation in to the biggest data breach in history, even though that data breach continues, there are significant issues that need to be considered further.
We will therefore carefully study the judgement and consider whether to appeal. We note that the European Court of Justice will soon rule in the UF v. Land Hessen case on data protection authorities’ mandatory obligation to investigate.
