De oplysninger, der udveksles mellem medlemsstaterne og Kommissionen, videregives ikke til andre end de personer i medlemsstaterne og i EF-institutionerne, hvis opgaver goer det noedvendigt for dem at have adgang til oplysningerne, medmindre den medlemsstat, der har fremsendt oplysningerne, udtrykkeligt giver sit samtykke hertil.
The data exchanged between Member States and the Commission shall not be transmitted to persons other than those in Member States or Community institutions whose functions require them to have such access unless the Member States transmitting the data give their express consent.
