COMMENT: Interesting talks
10:30am Tuesday 24th April 2012 in Editorial Comment

It says the scheme may not comply with the Data Protection Act and has given the council a month to explain why it believes the proposal does.
And if the commission is not satisfied with the council’s response, it can issue an enforcement notice demanding the scheme be scrapped.
Now, isn’t that one conversation we’d all like to listen in on...?
