Trust HM Government with your kids?
Well if anyone wants their bank details out in the open, please leave them in a comment here. Alternatively, have kids, claim Child Benefit, and let HM R&C lose them for you.

This fills me with hope for the National ID cards database.
My Hospital surgeon can't even update my own Doctor on the results of a regular visit a month after I've seen them, and they have to do it via letter, how can we expect the Government to look after data if they are living in a century long past?
Cutting the public's personal data to disc and then carrying it around. Idiots.

Agree, Richard.
When I damaged my eye I had a piece of paper to take to the doctor from the Eye Pavilion - it was a carbon form, the copy I got was the third one down of four. The receptionist told me to take it back because they couldn't scan it, it was that poor quality. I was acting as the courier.
And reports today about senior officials saying it would be too costly and time consuming to strip out the sensitive data? What? Have these fuds got absolutely no SQL skills? A traineee DBA could have written a SQL statement to exclude the sensitive columns in a matter of seconds.
Darling should join McLaren in the dole queue for this.
