It's not rocket science; we're part of the EU; the EU, in Directive 95/46/EC, stipulates all member states should include provision to the directive within their own DPA.

Re: Interesting read
Not only CMCs.
One DCA numpty quoted the Data Protection Act 1995 to me!
(Thinking about it, this may be the Act which gives them the right to play fast & loose with personal data - trouble is, I can't seem to find it on any legal/government websites!)Last edited by charitynjw; 7 August 2011, 12:18.

Their usual script seems to have been written by an idiot, though it might have been a by-product of the research project using a lot of chimpanzees bashing away at computer keyboards to reproduce Shakespeare's lost play, Love's Labours Won. The script monkey says the consumer can benefit from either "a little known piece of government legislation" or "a recent piece of government legislation", but they invariably fail when asked to clarify that.
The "little known piece of government legislation" was claimed to be "the Consumer Credit Act 1985", to which patent poppycock I replied that it was indeed "little known" as it seems to have eluded the compilers of the National Statute Database. The "recent piece of government legislation" was, apparently, "the Consumer Credit Act 2007" - and that also does not exist. When one asks them what sort of legislation there might be that was not the work of the government or, at least, presented to and passed by Parliament, the script monkeys either repeat the meaningless phrase or simply hang up, as they clearly cannot answer that question.
