Can we have an ICO that is on the side of the consumer?
please?
Organisations do not have to issue all the information stored in complaint files in order to comply with individuals' personal data access requests, the UK's data protection watchdog has said. Under the Data Protection Act (DPA) individuals have the right to access all personal data organisations store about them, but …
Does this mean that if you deliberately store information so you can't disentagle one individual then you can't be forced to disclose it? No, I can't believe any organisation would stoop so low.
So to summarise you have the right to see any information about you except when a company hides behind an expanding set of exemptions.

"organisations only have to issue the information that relates to an individual which allows them to be identified"
Here you are Mr Von Krakenfart, here's the information that relates to you that allows you to be identified:-
“Field Marshal Von Krakenfart”.
Thank you.
As usual the grubberment have implemented laws which give the impression of them doing something fro the proles while tugging their forelocks towards vested interests.
