[Winston Smith]

I had a response (hand addressed, signed etc) from my MP today to the email I sent earlier this month. To be fair to my MP they were on holiday, and their aide emailed me at the time to inform me of this. Very promising (well, thats what I read from it).

I assume I can quote my MP, without names etc.

Part of their response:

"..which I read with considerable sympathy as I do believe there is a privacy and data protection issue here. I would like to help and so will make immediate representations to the appropriate Minister."

Nice result, of course it does depend on the 'appropriate Minister' paying any attention, but nonetheless a nice reply.
