282: Section 200 amended (Restrictions on access to photographic images of driver licence holders)

You could also call this:

"Rules for accessing driver licence photos"

Illustration for Intelligence and Security Act 2017

When you want to look at a photo of someone who has a driver licence, there are rules to follow. You can't access or use these photos unless you are doing your job at the Agency. This rule has some exceptions, such as following section 141 of the Intelligence and Security Act 2017, and Part 10A of the Privacy Act 1993.

You might be allowed to access the photos if you are doing something that is allowed under these exceptions. The rules are in place to control who can see the photos of driver licence holders. These photos are stored under a specific part of the law.

If you are not supposed to access the photos, you are not allowed to use them. This is to protect the people whose photos are stored. The law says who can and can't access the photos, and you have to follow it.
