There was the fellow though from the Channel Islands who recently won a
small claim in the small claims court against a firm Media Logistics. He
limited the size of his claim so that he could make the claim in the
Small Claims Court.

And I note from Computing magazine "UK admits failure on spam" - no
prosecutions last year although it received 364 complaints. ICO states
that it needs greater powers to tackle the problem effectively. It gets
to the stage where you think especially with Customer First - what would
really happen if we did share data throughout Departments...wrap on the
knuckle or not.........
It's when you get headlines like the above you feel as though you are
banging your head against a brick wall i.e. trying to uphold the DP
principles and then at the end of the day has DP any real clout.....
Disillusioned or what!!! Never mind, it's Friday tomorrow.

I surrender.
The UKIC has stated that he will go after those who do not notify. This
is a strict liability offence, and easy to handle.
But when one complains that an organisation both ignores TPS and is not
notified one gets a reply talking about the fact that they may not need
to have notified in the first place. And it appears that the casework
and advice officer has not actually checked whether this ratbag of a
timeshare selling organisation needs to notify or not.
Instead he has passed them my phone number as the person who has
complained about them! Sweet!
