Is it always been reported that the USA does not have a data proteciton
act and with our new Act we may have problems for transborder flow with
the US.
However the following two Acts have come to light and I would appreciate
your comments on their status etc and how they affect the UK.
I extract from the web site :-

The Freedom of Information Act
Public Law No. 104-231, 110 Stat. 3048
he Freedom of Information Act establishes
the right of the public
to obtain information
maintained by the federal or state
government and their agencies
and

THE PRIVACY ACT OF 1974
which has many familiar terms and definitions
Thanks in advance
