of the Law, entry in the restricted section of the register, or
(ii) a
charity entered in the restricted section of the register; and

(ii) the
appeal is under Article 33(4) of the Law against a decision that relates

disclosure to the relevant entity, the Commissioner, the tribunal, or any
person acting on behalf of any of those persons;

that is registered in the public elements of the restricted section of the
