And.....I would imagine that should any breach occur then Lloyds would have an agreement with the data processor in India that should there be a breach of the agreement then the data processor would be liable.

        ***** THIS EMAIL WAS RECEIVED FROM THE INTERNET *****

        The Telegraph has an article on this that includes:
        'The Information Commissioner has not yet ruled on the case, but
        yesterday appeared to side with the bank, saying: "There are various
        bases in law which can be used to legitimise the transfer overseas of
        personal data - consent from the individual is just one of them. As far
        as we are concerned, the main issue is that the information that is
        transferred overseas continues to enjoy an adequate level of protection
        as if it stayed in the UK." '

        No-one seems to have picked this article up yet.  I just posted it in
        the
        RSS/XML feed on our site, so those of you who choose to take that
        service
        will see it when your reader refreshes.  The web site caches the feed
        for
        about 60 minutes or so to avoid frequent refreshes.  It will appear in
        HotNews (and on the home page) in the next 30 minutes or so

        Lloyds TSB are being challenged in the courts by the unions for data
        exports
        to India.

        On the face of it this is a DPA challenge, but is it really?  Surely
        it's
        about jobs?

        No UKIC comment in the FT article, but I suppose that's understandable
        in
        case it gets to court.

        I think the question is: "If a data processor is under a binding
        contract to
        the data controller to comply with UK DPA (or more stringent laws)
        despite
        their locality, is the export of data, even sensitive data, against the
        letter and spirit of the relevant laws?".  I present this uncommented
        upon
        for discussion here
