The current situation appears to be that:
- the DWP database is to be progressively cleaned (although I don't know
how) and become the reference database for govt
- the IND database will concentrate on specific groups of interest,
including (of course) those who apply for passports, plus those who
apply for entry visas and those from EU countries who become permanently
resident
I have not heard anything about the medical data, or about DVLA data.
