I am extremely grateful to everyone who has provided me with suggestions
both on and off list. What was an hour's slot is looking like I could
justify a half day training event (with tea and biscuits!) with all your
help. They'll be sorry they asked me to speak!
Thanks again

There was also the study done by the Universoty of Glamorgan which
bought disk drives from computer fairs etc and found that on half
attempts at wiping personal details off them had been unsuccessful

Additions:
Data destruction. When that old PC is disposed of, what is done to
the
disk drive? One local authority drilled a hole through theirs
believing
it made it safe. Regrettably only the data with a hole in it was
destroyed.
Global CRM systems. Who can view what? And is any of that data in
Spain? Are model contracts or BCRs in place? Safe Harbor is amusing,
but insufficient
Does the Business Continuity Plan have Data Privacy embedded inside
it?
A major fire is not a reason to erode individuals' rights, nor an
excuse for doing so

Physical security of laptops - that Nationwide thing is relevant,
though the fine is only really for FSA regulated orgs
Personal trawls through data for own purposes are unlawful. Bank
employees have lost their jobs over this, so have Police computer
users
Important to monitor free text fields for compliance. Remember Airbus
Industrie and Clifford Chance? There was also a letter addressed to
"Dear Black Bastard" by a gas company because the data had been
altered
to make that inevitable by a disaffected employee.
Monitor conditional fields for correctness. My aunt, when 80, was
told
that she could not have a free TV licence because she was not yet
whatever the age is. Yet they had her date of birth correct.
Best I can do at short notice.
