URLICH v POLICE [2019] NZHC 457
- Citation
- [2019] NZHC 457
- Court
- High Court
Leave to appeal was refused because the alleged disclosure was reasonably believed by the ambulance officer to be necessary to prevent or lessen a serious threat to public safety under r11(2)(d) of the Health Information Privacy Code, there was no tenable defence that the Code was breached, and even if arguable breach existed exclusion of evidence under Evidence Act s30 would not be proportionate; accordingly no miscarriage of justice and no matter of general or public importance was raised.
