Ian & Graham,
The points you make justify why councillors are legally separate entities -
but not why they can't have a common notification as per the businesses
(legally separate entities) in a security group - common purpose use of
CCTV, radio systems etc. or indeed the governors of a school not needing
separate notifications.
What other groups does the Information Commissioner identify as having to
have individual notifications?
Surely the idea behind notification is to allow data subjects to see who
will process their data and how it will be processed, or is the idea that it
should be a money making scheme? Figures show that there are in excess of
100,000 local councillors in the UK at all levels x £35 = lots of money!
Also taking this figure - presumably at the moment the majority are breaking
the law!?
Regards
Paul
