Key legal question
Whether truthful statements recorded in municipal council minutes must be deleted or anonymized under the cantonal data protection act.
Extracted holding
No. The data protection right does not require alteration of faithfully recorded minutes, even if the content of the recorded statements is allegedly false or offensive.
Extracted reasoning
Minutes serve to document the course and result of the meeting truthfully. If the statements were accurately recorded, data protection cannot be used to rewrite the protocol; other remedies must be pursued instead.
