The example given to explain this phrase in the Human Right Act was Railtrack
when it acts in its rail safety capacity, but not when it sells/lets railway
property.
The Daily Mirror tried this argument for the press in Naomi Campbell - did
not work.
Personally, I think CCTV systems operated in private shopping malls could be
another example

Dear all,
Schedule 2, para 5 (d) gives as one of the conditions for fair processing:
'for the exercise of any other functions of a public nature exercised in the
public interest by any person'
Does anyone have clear guidance on what this means? For example, would a
voluntary organisation doing non-statutory work under a local authority
service level agreement be covered? If it was statutory work carried out
under a contract would they be covered? If a charity's constitution made
its services available to the whole community would all its activities be
covered, regardless of how they were funded?
