Fundamentally what should now be happening is the DPA should be recast one of the major problems that exist at the moment is that there are certainly three if not more subsets of data interests within legistrative terms. The government, the commercial sector and the individual. What the DPA should do is a matter of course is give the prima seed to the individual citizen and that is where the slippage has acurd. That is the most urgent thing that needs to be done. Recasting of the DPA in order that primacy of data interests of the individual citizen takes presidence over government and commercial sector.

Have to agree it is time we as the data owners are allowed to say who can and cannot use our data.
