The applicant was the subject of a decision by the district governor to stop his driving licence on the ground that he had exceeded the speed limit by more than 50 km/h. That decision was upheld by the Local Government Appeal Court. The applicant appealed to the Provincial Administrative Court in Kielce. In his appeal, he argued, inter alia, that in the case there had been a breach of the provisions on the protection of the applicant's personal data on the part of the District Office and a failure on the part of the District Office and the Self-Governmental Appeals Board to take steps to inform the persons named in the decision and the President of the Office for Personal Data Protection of this breach (the leak of sensitive data). The Provincial Administrative Court in Kielce dismissed the appeal.
