Home Office Gaffe

Monday, April 27th, 2009

The UK Home Office published a consultation paper on the 24th April detailing their plans for draconian data retention and access rules, which will see ‘communications data’ retained by ‘communications service providers’. As concerning as the whole thing is, there was an interesting mistake I noticed.

There is a right to complain to an independent tribunal if a member of the public believes that their data has not been acquired unlawfully.

Protecting the public in a changing communications environment

Lovely double negative!
