66. A body holding information must, where the person in charge of the protection of information within the body has granted a request for access submitted in accordance with Division V of Chapter III, communicate to the applicant, free of charge, the information concerned and allow the applicant to examine it on the premises during regular working hours or by remote access and to obtain a copy of it.

If the applicant so requests, computerized information must be communicated to the applicant in the form of a written and intelligible transcript. In addition, unless doing so causes serious practical difficulties, such information, where collected from the person concerned and not created or inferred from information concerning him or her, must be communicated to the applicant in a structured, commonly used technological format.

If the applicant is a handicapped person, reasonable accommodation must be provided, on request, to enable the applicant to receive communication of the information to which he or she is entitled.
