Section 42 GwG – Notification by domestic public authorities to the German Financial Intelligence Unit

(1) 1In criminal proceedings in which the German Financial Intelligence Unit has disclosed information, the competent public prosecution office notifies the German Financial Intelligence Unit of the commencement of public prosecution and the outcome of the proceedings, including all decisions to terminate proceedings. 2The notification is effected by sending a copy of the indictment, the reasoned decision to terminate proceedings, or the verdict.
(2) 1If the German Financial Intelligence Unit discloses information to other domestic public authorities, the receiving authority notifies the German Financial Intelligence Unit of the final use made of the information provided and of the outcome of the measures taken on the basis of the information provided, insofar as other legal provisions do not preclude notification. 2Section 30 (1) of the Tax Code does not preclude this.
