title: The recent Italian Consolidation Act on privacy: new measures for data protection.
abstract: In the light of the new Consolidation Act on privacy, in effect since January 2004, the author has made some observations in relation to the protection of data concerning health. Special focus has been given to an overall view of the new regulations. "Sensitive data" are seen as differing from health data, while always respecting the rights, the fundamental freedom and the dignity of the person involved. A central role continues to be played by the Controller, who has regulating and control powers.
