But the salient point was that it is going on websites, not that the address
is included.  There is no legal requirement to make the information available
wordwide, therefore (IMO) consent is required.  If the planning lists were
made available locally say on a LAN via kiosks, there would be fewer problems.

On-line government is an ideal or a guideline (more on-line = more cash) but
the law is the law.  E-government should mean services on-line, not personal
data on-line.
