response: "Response from the Ministry of Finance\nThe Ministry of Finance, as a line\
  \ ministry, is primarily responsible for drafting systemic legislation in the field\
  \ of insurance, which includes the Law on Compulsory Motor Insurance (hereinafter\
  \ referred to as the Law on Compulsory Motor Insurance). Article 8 of the Law sets\
  \ out the basis for the collection of data in the Register of Claims.\nInsurance\
  \ companies and the Slovenian Insurance Association (hereinafter referred to as\
  \ SZZ) process personal data necessary for the conclusion of insurance contracts\
  \ and for the processing of claims, in accordance with the law governing the protection\
  \ of personal data and the specific regulations on databases in the field of insurance.\n\
  Pursuant to Article 8 of the PIIPA, insurance undertakings and the SZZ shall establish,\
  \ keep and maintain:\n a database on insured persons; a database on claims; a database\
  \ for the assessment of insurance cover and the amount of compensation.\nThe bodies,\
  \ organisations and individuals holding the data or databases referred to in the\
  \ preceding paragraphs shall, on request, provide such data to the insurance undertaking\
  \ or the SZZ, as the case may be. However, without a specific request, insurance\
  \ undertakings or the NMS may obtain data or databases on road accidents by consulting\
  \ the electronic police records of road accidents, provided that it is possible\
  \ to verify the legal basis and the purpose of the transmission of personal data,\
  \ for a period of time during which the individual may be legally protected against\
  \ the unlawful transmission of personal data. The police records database is managed\
  \ by the Ministry of the Interior.\nIn short, in order to protect personal data,\
  \ access to data on damage to private vehicles is limited to victims, insurance\
  \ companies and the NHS.\nWe would also like to add that at the level of the European\
  \ Union, procedures are under way to amend Directive 2009/103/EC of the European\
  \ Parliament and of the Council on insurance against civil liability in respect\
  \ of the use of motor vehicles, and on the obligation to insure against such liability.\
  \ Following the adoption of the Directive, amendments to the Motor Insurance Act\
  \ are planned.\nYour proposal will be considered by the Ministry of Finance in the\
  \ context of the amendments to the above-mentioned law."
