Recital 45
(45) Fejn l-ipproċessar jitwettaq f’konformità ma’ obbligu legali li għalih ikun soġġett il-kontrollur jew fejn l-ipproċessar ikun meħtieġ għat-twettiq ta’ kompitu li jsir fl-interess pubbliku jew fl-eżerċizzju ta’ awtorità uffiċjali, l-ipproċessar għandu jkollu bażi fil-liġi tal-Unjoni jew ta’ Stat Membru.
Dan ir-Regolament ma jirrikjedix liġi speċifika għal kull ipproċessar individwali.
Tista’ tkun biżżejjed liġi li sservi ta’ bażi għal diversi operazzjonijiet ta’ pproċessar ibbażata fuq obbligu legali li huwa soġġett għalih il-kontrollur jew fejn l-ipproċessar huwa meħtieġ għat-twettiq ta’ kompitu li jsir fl-interess pubbliku jew fl-eżerċizzju ta’ awtorità uffiċjali.
Għandha tkun ukoll il-liġi tal-Unjoni jew ta’ Stat Membru li tiddetermina l-fini tal-ipproċessar.
Barra minn hekk, dik il-liġi tista’ tispeċifika l-kondizzjonijiet ġenerali ta’ dan ir-Regolament li jirregola l-legalità tal-ipproċessar ta’ data personali, tistabbilixxi l-ispeċifikazzjonijiet biex jiġu ddeterminati l-kontrollur, it-tip ta’ data soġġetta għall-ipproċessar, is-suġġetti tad-data kkonċernati, l-entitajiet li lilhom tista’ tiġi żvelata d-data personali, il-limitazzjonijiet tal-fini, il-perijodu tal-ħażna u miżuri oħra li jiżguraw ipproċessar legali u ġust.
Għandha wkoll tkun il-liġi tal-Unjoni jew il-liġi nazzjonali li tistabbilixxi jekk il-kontrollur li jwettaq il-kompitu fl-interess pubbliku jew fl-eżerċizzju ta’ awtorità uffiċjali għandux ikun awtorità pubblika jew xi persuna fiżika jew ġuridika oħra regolata bil-liġi pubblika, jew, fejn ikun fl-interess pubbliku li jsir hekk, inkluż għal skopijiet ta’ saħħa bħas-saħħa pubblika u l-protezzjoni soċjali u l-ġestjoni tas-servizzi tal-kura tas-saħħa, bil-liġi privata, bħal assoċjazzjoni professjonali.
(45) Where processing is carried out in accordance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject or where processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority, the processing should have a basis in Union or Member State law.
This Regulation does not require a specific law for each individual processing.
A law as a basis for several processing operations based on a legal obligation to which the controller is subject or where processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of an official authority may be sufficient.
It should also be for Union or Member State law to determine the purpose of processing.
Furthermore, that law could specify the general conditions of this Regulation governing the lawfulness of personal data processing, establish specifications for determining the controller, the type of personal data which are subject to the processing, the data subjects concerned, the entities to which the personal data may be disclosed, the purpose limitations, the storage period and other measures to ensure lawful and fair processing.
It should also be for Union or Member State law to determine whether the controller performing a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority should be a public authority or another natural or legal person governed by public law, or, where it is in the public interest to do so, including for health purposes such as public health and social protection and the management of health care services, by private law, such as a professional association.
