Home > Why are there limits on the data available?

The Registry tries to make as much data as possible to the public. However we are bound by our Confidentiality Policy [1] and cannot release to the public any information which might identify a particular individual. Thus we use different configurations to allow us to provide as much data as possible without compromising the privacy of a citizen.

If you are looking for a particular piece of information you can make a request for data [2] and, if it does not contravene our Confidentiality Policy [1] we will provide you with the results free of charge.
