The Privacy Commissioner,
Allan Chiang, has said the
commission would do a better
job in prosecuting data
protection breaches than the
police.
Speaking on an RTHK
programme, Mr Chiang said due
to limited resources, the
police could not put privacy
offences high in their list of
priorities, and that this had
resulted in the low number of
prosecutions in the past.
He
said the privacy watchdog,
with the expertise it has,
should therefore be given the
power to prosecute.
