It’s surprising that people are allowed to get away with this example of behaviour with a view to human life.
This is about peoples private data that had been set onto a mainframe and, then put up for sale by a data destruction company that had been employed by the NHS Surrey.
I guess that the words data destruction company says it all, a company that wipes out the details from a computer, which clearly was not done in these circumstances, which means that they had no thought for anyone else that was on that computer.
You can sell anything on e bay these days, but when sensitive details about people are registered on something, then the proposition is that it should be destroyed completely, not sold onto the highest bidder.
The National Health Service is a publicly funded healthcare system of England, essentially financed through the general taxation system, which begun in 1948.
Nonetheless, its parent department is the Department of Health, which is part of government, so consequently anything that is part of government, or anyone employed by the NHS should be required to sign an Official Secrets Act, because anything that is private and confidential, where its headquarters are Whitehall, should be protected by the Official Secrets Act and, anyone working within the NHS should be required to sign and, any paraphernalia utilised and, then disregarded, should be destroyed after that.

My vision on life is pretty broad, therefore I like to address specific subjects that intrigue me. Therefore I really appreciate the world of politics, though I have no actual views on who I will vote for, that I will not tell you, so please do not ask!
I am like an observation station when it comes to writing, and I simply take the news and make it my own. I have no expectations, I simply love to write, and I know this seems really odd, but I don't get paid for it, I really like what I do and since I am never under any pressure, I constantly find that I write much better, rather than being blanketed under masses of paperwork and articles that I am on a deadline to complete.
The chances are, that whilst all other journalists are out there, ripping their hair out, attempting to get their articles completed, I'm simply rambling along at my convenience creating my perfect piece.
I guess it must look pretty unpleasant to some of you that I work for nothing, perhaps even brutal. Perhaps I have an obvious disregard for authority, I have no idea, but I would sooner be working for myself, than under somebody else, excuse the pun!
Small I maybe, but substantial I will become, eventually.
My desk is the most chaotic mess, though surprisingly I know where everything is, and I think that I would be quite unsuited for a desk job.
My views on matters vary and I am extremely open-minded to the stuff that I write about, but what I write about is the truth and getting it out there, because the people must be acquainted. Though I am quite entertained by what goes on in the world.
My spotlight is mostly to do with politics, though I do write other material as well, but it's essentially politics that I am involved in, and I tend to concentrate my attention on that, however, information is essential. If you have information the possibilities are endless because you are only limited by your own imagination...
