The cases of individuals vary in their sensitivity. While it is possible to identify those cases that are either highly sensitive or obviously benign, there is no clear demarcation between those that might be regarded as sensitive and those that are not. Further, to sort cases at that level would have required a detailed item level review of each case, which was impractical. Given these constraints and sensitivities, cases of individuals are restricted from access by researchers for a period of 50 years, that is until 2025.

Casework of individuals, when opened, will be made available only to researchers that agree not to use names or other personally-identifiable data in their work.
