CENTRUM FÖR RÄTTVISA v. SWEDEN JUDGMENT 43 serves to protect individuals’ personal integrity (cf. Roman Zakharov, cited above, §§ 253-256; and Kennedy, cited above, §§ 162-164). (vi) Conditions for communicating the intercepted data to other parties (α) The parties’ submissions 148. The applicant submitted that the conditions for communicating data left a large discretion to the FRA, for instance through the lack of specification as regards the foreign authorities and international organisations to whom data could be communicated. 149. The Government maintained that the procedures for communicating data, including the communication to other states and international organisations as part of Sweden’s international cooperation, contained sufficient safeguards and that supervision was provided by the Foreign Intelligence Inspectorate. (β) The Court’s assessment 150. With regard to the communication of intercepted data to other parties, the purpose of signals intelligence naturally demands that it may be reported to concerned national authorities, in particular the authority which ordered the mission. Furthermore, given the context – the collection of intelligence on foreign circumstances that may have an impact on Swedish national security and other essential national interests as well as the country’s participation in international security operations – it is evident that there must be a possibility of exchanging intelligence collected with international partners. Thus, the FRA Personal Data Processing Act allows the communication of personal data to other states or international organisations if necessary for the activities of the FRA within international defence and security cooperation and as long as it is not prevented by secrecy. Further discretion is given to the Government, which may decide to communicate personal data to states or organisations in other cases when necessary for the activities of the FRA, thus presumably in cases where such communication would otherwise be prevented by rules of secrecy. The FRA Personal Data Processing Ordinance adds that such disclosure is permitted for the benefit of the Swedish Government and Sweden’s comprehensive defence strategy as long as it does not harm Swedish interests (see paragraph 35 above). The relevant provision of the Public Access to Information and Secrecy Act contains an exception to the rule of secrecy in relation to foreign authorities and international organisations in cases where an express legal provision allows disclosure or when the information in an analogous situation may be given to a Swedish authority and the disclosing authority finds it to be consistent with Swedish interests (paragraph 58). Thus, whereas national interests are taken into account, the legislation does not indicate that possible harm to the individual concerned must be
