Public could foot multi-million pound bill after prison officers' details lost

There were warnings today that the taxpayer may face a multi-million pound bill after the loss of a computer disk carrying personal details of thousands of employees of the National Offender Management Service - many of whom are prison officers and probation workers.
Jack Straw, the Justice Secretary, ordered an urgent inquiry after it was revealed that the hard drive was reported missing in July. He has also demanded to be told why he was not informed immediately of the loss.
EDS, a private contractor brought in to to overhaul IT infrastructure seven years ago, told the Prison Service in July this year that the hard drive had gone astray - a year after the missing disk had last been seen.

God damn, its like every year some civil servant in Britain looses peoples private data.
Funny thing Brits dont aprove ID cards, they dont give away any info classified as personal and help to prevent many crimes.

We all need Osama bin Laden's organization to run things.
At least THEY understand security and how to maintain it, right? /sarcasm

I know you exist and I care simply because you keep telling us about it.

Keep up the good work!
