Tuesday, 28 February 2006Protecting personal data
Main event today after surgery is the European Committee on exchange of data between law enforcement agencies in the EU. What this is about is letting any country in the EU access the information on databases in any other country in the pursuit of crime. Whilst in principle this sounds a great way to catch criminals, the reality is - we can't even make our own databases secure - let alone open them up to other countries. Huge problems can follow from widespread access to insecure data. Let's get our own house in order first.
Find myself in the Members’ Dining Room in Parliament in the evening with Chris Huhne and a couple of others from Team Huhne. It's all over bar the shouting - and none of us have a real clue as to who has won. Roll on Thursday! Labels: chris huhne Latest postings from this blog: |
