Any information which is by nature confidential (for example, because its disclosure would be of significant competitive advantage to a competitor or would have a significantly adverse effect upon a person supplying the information or upon a person from whom the person supplying the information has acquired the information) or which is provided on a confidential basis by parties to an investigation shall, if good cause is shown, be treated as such by the authorities.
Aon fhaisnéis ar fhaisnéis rúnda í (toisc go dtabharfaí buntáiste suntasach iomaíoch d'iomaitheoir dá nochtfaí í, mar shampla, nó toisc go mbeadh tionchar suntasach diúltach aici ar an duine a sholáthraíonn an fhaisnéis nó ar an duine óna bhfuair sé an fhaisnéis) nó aon fhaisnéis a sholáthraíonn páirtithe ar bhonn rúnda d'imscrúdú, déanfaidh na húdaráis í a choireáil amhlaidh.
