Uvodna izjava 164
Recital 164
(164) U vezi s ovlastima nadzornih tijela za dobivanje pristupa osobnim podacima i prostorijama od voditelja obrade ili izvršitelja obrade, države članice mogu zakonskim putem, u okviru ograničenja ove Uredbe, donijeti posebna pravila radi očuvanja profesionalnih ili drugih odgovarajućih obveza čuvanja tajnosti podataka, u mjeri u kojoj je nužno uskladiti pravo na zaštitu osobnih podataka s obvezom čuvanja profesionalne tajne.
Time se ne dovode u pitanje postojeće obveze država članica da primijene pravila o čuvanju profesionalne tajne kada pravo Unije tako nalaže.
(164) As regards the powers of the supervisory authorities to obtain from the controller or processor access to personal data and access to their premises, Member States may adopt by law, within the limits of this Regulation, specific rules in order to safeguard the professional or other equivalent secrecy obligations, in so far as necessary to reconcile the right to the protection of personal data with an obligation of professional secrecy.
This is without prejudice to existing Member State obligations to adopt rules on professional secrecy where required by Union law.
