HM revenue cocks it up…..do we expect any less from the UK public Sector?
How 25M child benefit records were burned on 2 discs and then lost in the post…ahem.
Sending by (a) Royal Mail (b) unrecorded was a bit daft.
And especially as that data could be downloaded or transferred securely via Internet.
As the discs have every bit of personal data down to bank accounts, it is a serious worry.
It’s just these blunders that continue to happen in sloppy Britain.
