67: Registrar must keep register secure

You could also call this:

"The Registrar must keep the private register safe and secure."

Illustration for Telecommunications (Interception Capability and Security) Act 2013

The Registrar has to take reasonable steps to keep the register safe. You can think of the register like a private book that not everyone can look at. The Registrar must make sure only certain people can access it. The Registrar must stop people who are not allowed from searching the register. This rule is about keeping the register secure. It does not affect the Official Information Act 1982, which is mentioned with section 66.
