This legal discussion analyzes the Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) decisions (MCST 4599/3615) which found "no breach" following the auto-deletion of personal data (CCTV footage) during a live Section 21 access request. The video exposes a systemic failure rooted in the following legal flaws:
1. Statutory Loophole: The narrow application of Section 22A creates a "pre-refusal gap," allowing routine data deletion to defeat access rights by circumventing preservation duties. This contradicts Ministerial assurances that the PDPA mandates preservation during processing.
2. Enforcement Failure: The PDPC improperly declined to enforce mandatory preservation obligations under Section 24 (Protection) and Section 25 (Retention Limitation, where a live request constitutes a "legal purpose").
3. Outsourced Accountability: The PDPC excused its inaction by relying on the non-statutory "referral to police" advisory, effectively outsourcing its statutory duty, a procedural deflection later endorsed by IMDA as "according to protocol".
The case demonstrates that procedural compliance was used to obscure accountability, rendering the citizen's right of access "hollow in practice".
