(b) Member states may receive, and shall provide, files and information regarding the investigation and discipline, if any, of teachers in other member states upon request. Any member state receiving the information or files shall protect and maintain the security and confidentiality thereof, in at least the same manner that the member state maintains its own investigatory or disciplinary files and information.
