Section 19
Individual returns not to be disclosed
(1)
No individual return of particulars or information, and no part thereof furnished relating to any business, occupation or work shall, without the previous consent in writing of the person having the control, management or superintendence thereof, be published nor, except for the purposes of a prosecution under this Act or under such conditions as may be prescribed, shall any person not engaged in connection with a census be permitted to see any such individual return or part thereof.
(2)
In making regulations and prescribing forms under section 6
due regard shall be had to the circumstances of various trades and industries, and in particular to the importance of avoiding the disclosure in any return of any trade secret or of trading profits, or of any other particulars or information the disclosure of which would be likely to tend to the prejudice of the person furnishing the return.
