1W.4111114, 9. In order to establish, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 13.06, subdivision 2 (b), "that a compelling need exists for immediate temporary classification," describe how release of the data "could adversely affect the public interest or the health, safety, well-being or reputation of the data subject." To establish a compelling need for a classification of data as private, you must detail the adverse effects of releasing the data to the public. To establish a compelling need for classifying the data as conjidential, you must describe the adverse effects if the data were released not only to the public but to the data subject as well. Consult with your legal advisor about the meaning of the term, "compelling need." It is not sufficient merely to affirm that a compelling need exists. You are required to state explicitly the nature of the compelling need and to cite facts supporting your assertions. Be as speciJI-c as possible in identifying adverse effects, sequences of events or cause -and -effect relationships. If relevant, cite any past instances where release of this kind of data to the public has adversely affected the public interest or the health, safety, well-being or reputation of the data subject. I affirm that all of the above statements are true to the best of my knowledge. I am aware that any classification made under this application expires June I of the year following its submission to the Legislature pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 13.06, subdivision 7, unless the Legislature takes action on the classification.
