The Observer | UK News | Child database 'will breach human rights': "The government wants the database - which Children's Minister Margaret Hodge has said will cost several hundred million pounds to implement - to list the name, age, address, and educational and health backgrounds of every child in England and Wales. But in a highly detailed, 11-page submission to the education and skills select committee, Thomas has expressed technical and legal concerns which threaten the database's creation.
His chief fear is that the database breaches Article 8 of the convention, which states that somebody's personal information should be subject to strict rules governing their privacy and confidentiality"
