The Department of Transport may use or disclose personal or medical information it collects from you on behalf of your council, but only as permitted by law, including the Road Safety Act 1986, the Privacy and Data Protection Act 2014, and the Health Records Act 2001.
This may include disclosing the information to the Department’s or the council’s employees or contractors, other councils, medical experts, law enforcement agencies, other road and traffic authorities, the Transport Accident Commission, vehicle manufacturers (for safety recalls), road safety researchers, courts and other organisations or people authorised to use the personal or health information.
The most likely use of your information will be to assess your application for an accessible parking permit, or in the context of a parking infringement or the administration of the accessible parking permit scheme.
Failure to provide the information could result in your application not being processed, or records not being properly maintained.
