Irene,
How did the student find out the names of the janitors and cleaners? Was
this disclosure compatible with the original purpose for which the
information was held (Principle 2)? Did the Data Subjects know that this
type of disclosure was a possibility? I agree that the student is probably
now the Data Controller, but if I was one of the people named and I wasn't
happy I might start asking awkward questions. Sorry to stir things if you
had decided to let sleeping dogs lie.
