I have a compiled list of all the official national DP practitioners (or
directly associated) sites which I have so far found around the world which
I am happy to e-mail to anybody who might wish to have a copy. (Please
e-mail direct if required) The list was originally compiled last year from
the Europa, OECD and ICO links.
The details are contained within a text file formated as a Biblioscape 5
resource file, which you can import straight into that software if you have
it, otherwise you might need to separate the URL's from the other
information, or simply reformat for your own software.
E.g.
<BIBSOURCE>
Channel Islands - Jersey - Data Protection Registry
http://www.dataprotection.gov.je/
Data Protection
European Union
