I don't know why we are still asking these questions, John? :-)
I thought the Caldicott Report as presented by Dame Caldicott at last
year's EHI has laid that argument to rest.
What we ought to be doing now is looking at the report recommendations
and determining how best to implement them.
The Report, btw, did not rule out the use of 'Privacy Enhamcing
Technologies'.
I've lost my URL to it, perhaps that fount of knowledge on such
matters, John Farenden, might be able to post it here for all,
unless, of course, he's not recovered from the Boro celebrations yet
:-)
