Thirteen London councils have failed to protect personal information on
citizens during the last year, according to a
BBC survey.
The guilty respondents to a Freedom of Information request said that data has
been either lost, stolen or "inadvertently disclosed."
In two separate incidents four months apart, workers at Kensington and
Chelsea Borough Council took information on vulnerable children into bars, where
it was stolen.
And in October 2007, 375 student files were stolen from Havering Council.
