DEC admitted unlawful data collection
The Information Commissioner says a huge database of every school pupil on the Island wasn’t needed – and he’s not surprised it’s now been turned off.
Iain McDonald says the centralised school database had caused concerns for some time about the amount of data it collected and put in one place.
This week, Education Minister Tim Crookall admitted it was unlawful and had been switched off until his department could pass new legislation.
Mr McDonald says such vast collections of information are unnecessary:
Friday evening sailings subject to possible disruption or cancellation
Students treated to theatre workshop by UK company
More services to be temporarily relocated from Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital
Warning in place for coastal overtopping
