0100,0100,0100I agree with the reservations of Tim Trent but would also make
the point that the consultants are data processors and must only
work under written contract in accordance with
Schedule 1, Part ll, Section 12 of the Act.
I would be particularly careful where the sensitive data is
involved and, like Tim, question the need for that to be passed
to them. It would be even better if all the data could be
anonymised before being handed over so that it is used only for
statistical purposes.
