An organisation or health agency that has provided unit record data to the ACI may request a copy of that information be returned to them. This is called 'back to notifier' disclosure. For more information see Policy Directive - Data Collections – Disclosure of Unit Record Data for Research or Management of Health Services.
Unit record data may be returned to the original notifying agency without further approval, providing the information returned does not contain additional personal information from another source. ‘Back to notifier’ disclosure is only valid where the request is made or approved by a person who has the delegated authority over the relevant unit record data.
