Decisions on the sharing of the Health and Safety Executive’s (HSE) data with other government agencies are generally taken on a case by case basis, with the outcome and justification being documented at a local level.

HSE does not hold a central register of its data sharing activities as there is no statutory requirement for the organisation to do so.
