Via Becky Hogge at ORG: Government threatens data sharing onslaught
"Prime minister Gordon Brown has included increased data sharing powers in three of the bills announced in his draft legislative programme – with one measure that would hand HM Revenue and Customs data to private firms...
Brown’s measures are included in planned legislation that is not focused on welfare or improving public services.
Instead, the draft legislative programme – a departure from the tradition of announcing government bills in the queen’s speech – includes increased data sharing powers in proposed new laws on terrorism, education and skills and the sale of student loans."
