And I see from 
<http://www.kablenet.com/kd.nsf/Frontpage/D1C3A89721E8DAB6802574940040E7
F2?OpenDocument> that they are now allowing "anonymous" access to this 
database for "research" with "stringent guidelines". We know that that 
means.

Although I don't live in England I don't recall any "consultation" 
regarding this "development", which is even more sinister than the 
database itself.

<http://www.libdems.org.uk/news/home-office-allowing-private-companies-
access-to-the-dna-database-willott.14838.html> is the press release.
