What is the impact of the RCMP’s Physicians’ Association Protocol on the privacy of an individual?

The Applicant does not take issue with the fact that there is a Protocol but rather with the details of it given the nature of the medical information held by the RCMP. They say the manner and circumstances in the Protocol allow personal medical information to be disclosed without sufficiently protecting the privacy rights of RCMP members. The five ways previously listed enumerate the Applicant’s concerns. For ease of reference, I repeat them here. The Applicant says the Protocol violates paragraph 8(2)(d) of the Act in that it: i. fetters discretion, ii. contains no limits on the types of legal proceedings, iii. does not require notice to the affected person, iv. contains no safeguards to the personal information being disclosed, and v. does not require DOJ to identify the purpose for the disclosure.
