HL Deb 18 July 1997 vol 581 c135WA
Lord Spens

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Which departments of state keep updated and detailed files on individuals for whatever purpose, stating in each case whether the individuals concerned are permitted to see and examine these files if they so request.

Lord McIntosh of Haringey

The information requested is not held centrally, and could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.
