What happens when the investigation is finished?
If the complaint is not settled during the investigation, the Privacy Commissioner will form a provisional opinion on how the law applies to the complaint. She sends it to the affected party and seeks their comments.
Once she has taken those comments into account, and if the matter is still not settled or withdrawn, the Commissioner will form her final opinion.
Her opinion is not legally binding, but it is taken seriously.
