That is the governance of the privacy requirements, which are carefully constrained to ensure that information can be shared only for these specified purposes and by specified persons. There are criminal sanctions for unlawful disclosure of personal information received under those powers, and a code of practice has been developed to provide guidance for practitioners. There are also requirements for good governance; although I was not present during the passing of the Act under which this operates, I am sure that those strictures were carefully discussed.
