Chief Minister Natasha Fyles continues to deny the 'inadvertent' sharing of NT patient records amounts to a 'breach of identifiable data'.

abc.net.au/news/natasha-fyles-patient-files-inadvertently-shared-nt-health/102409014Chief Minister Natasha Fyles has continued to deny a "breach of identifiable data" occurred during a transfer of Northern Territory public health patient files to an overseas software company.

Some patient items were classed as having very-high or high clinical risk, such as psychology reports and psychiatric facility visits, termination of pregnancy or stillbirth records, and electroconvulsive therapy — also known as electric shock therapy — records. "At no point was there a breach of identifiable patient data, that did not happen," she said.

Last week NT Health chief executive Marco Brecino said of the incident: "This is what we consider a breach."Ms Fyles, who was the health minister at the time of the incident and continues to hold the portfolio, has repeatedly said"No, I was not a decision-maker in this process. I was aware of the incident as I am aware of a lot of things as Health Minister," she said.Information Commissioner Peter Shoyer has distanced himself from the decision not to make the incident public.
