s 32 Data protection
(1) Nothing in this Part requires or authorises the processing of information if the processing would contravene the data protection legislation (but in determining whether it would do so, take into account any duty imposed or power conferred by this Part ). (2) For these purposes— (a) references to this Part include regulations made under this Part , the victims’ code and guidance issued under this Part ; (b) “processing” and “the data protection legislation” have the same meanings as in the Data Protection Act 2018 (see section 3 of that Act).
