In what way precisely? You have also assumed that personal data must
have been transferred outside of the UK - which was not the case with
our Ethiopian student. The data was here, the DPA applies, which
includes the subject access provisions. Explain why you think
otherwise.....

John,
It's not that you and I should distinguish between them but that the law
does.

Why distinguish? If someone thinks a UK data controller may hold
personal data about them why should they not put in an SAR? Since the
purpose of data protection is to protect data, and to try and encourage
such protection elsewhere, why should we discriminate on rights of
access to people outside the EU if we hold their data? Data protection
came from human rights legislation in the first place - do we want the
human rights we give to EU citizens to stop at the EU boundary?
