Whereas a draft of this Order has been laid before and approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament:
Whereas the Secretary of State considers that the application of the subject information provisions (or those provisions without modification) in the circumstances and to the extent specified in this Order would be likely to prejudice the carrying out of social work:
Now, therefore, the Secretary of State, in exercise of the powers conferred on him by sections 30(3) and (4) and 67(2) of the Data Protection Act 1998(1), and after consultation with the Data Protection Commissioner in accordance with section 67(3) of that Act, hereby makes the following Order:
1998 c. 29; as respects Wales, the functions of the Secretary of State under section 30 were transferred to the National Assembly for Wales by article 2 of, and Schedule 1 to, S.I. 1999/672, but are also exercisable by the Secretary of State by virtue of paragraph 5 of Schedule 3 to the Government of Wales Act 1998 (c. 38) for the purposes set out in that paragraph.
