	Contrary to the Green Book, MC had failed to sufficiently identify risk to information during the process of collection and subsequent transfer of voter registration data from the MVD to MC prior to the September 2024 press release. The lack of a written agreement between MC and MVD suggest no action was taken to address a known risk after single error was found.
