I do not know if anyone has seen the website www.b4usearch.com

You just enter a name and a location and it will bring up all details of
address and telephone numbers from electoral registers and directory
listings as well as any other website reference.

I have become aware of this, thanks to Maidstone.  I have contacted ICO and
they say that as the information has been lawfully obtained, there is
nothing really that can be done.

The organisation has purchased old electoral registers and so in many cases,
the information is out of date and therefore this breaches DP on an
individual but it is up to the individual to ask for the information to be
deleted. 

We are sending an email to all employees to send an email to
[log in to unmask] asking for  information to be removed. If the request has
not been actioned within 21 days, we are suggesting that the individual
complains to the Information Commissioner's Office.
