Our school bus passes have the child's name and address on the back,
together with the route number and school. They only show the front of the
pass to the driver. We have been advised to have this removed because of
DP issues. I can see the point if the card is lost, and the current worry
of paedophiles, but I feel that as the data subject has control of the
card and doesn't have to disclose the side with personal details unless
they wish to (for any other reason), we are not in the wrong.
