HC Deb 17 May 1988 vol 133 c372W
Mr. Cohen

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what discussions he has held with the Data Protection Registrar in relation to the new police national computer.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

The replacement police national computer will initially hold only the information held on the current system, and no further discussions with the Data Protection Registrar are necessary. The registrar will be consulted when plans for new applications are further advanced.
