 +
 +The [[:explanations:public-authority|public authority]] is not under obligation to disclose ACRs of any employee to the employee himself or to any other person inasmuch as disclosure of ACRs is protected by clause (j) of sub-section (1) of [[:act:|Section 8 of the RTI Act]]; and an ACR is a confidential document, disclosure of which is protected by the Official Secrets Act, 1923. 
 +===== Is there an exception to disclosure of ACR =====

If it is felt that public interest in disclosure of ACT of any employee outweighs the protected interests, decision to disclose the ACRs should be taken with the approval of the [[:explanations:competent-authority|competent authority]].
