133. Notwithstanding section 132, the national public health director may authorize the communication or disclosure, subject to the conditions specified by the national public health director, of personal or confidential information received by the national public health director from a public health director if the national public health director believes on reasonable grounds that the health of the population is threatened and that the circumstances require such communication or disclosure to protect the health of the population.

The national public health director may also communicate such information to any health authority outside Québec if the communication is necessary to protect the health of that authority’s population or forms part of the stipulations of an agreement with that health authority.
