My medical records are mine and they are private and not for general perusal by any profit hungry group of sharks.

Absolute disgrace by Cameron if this goes ahead. Talk about patient confidentiality. Cameron going too far now in the quest to try find a pot gold under his bed.
How will this great bright spark hair brained idea be policed. Aha new QUANGO regularity body will have to be done so firms dont abuse the information.
Then the argument whose the data is owned like artistical rights its my body so surely its my DATA not camerons to choose and sell. If they as example SELL MY DETIALS then should I not own those rights therefore its MY MONEY not NHS not Governments. The cheque in post should be coming to the door of my home. So surely there its my HUMAN RIGHT to tell cameroon to go where the sun dont shine.
Words fail me how cameron scraping the barrell.

Who gave the DVLA permission to sell our information ???
*************EDIT***************
Just found some info and it seems it was When Watchdog first revealed the DVLA was selling on your details, there was outrage and the then-
Labour Transport Minister Stephen Ladyman was even forced to respond, saying,
"Some time ago I announced we were going to do a thorough review of the circumstances in which the DVLA release private information."
So it looks like the tories are not the only **** allowing this sort of thing to happen
