| Abstract: | What is "personal data" as defined by European and UK data protection legislation? The article considers how the scope of “personal data” has been narrowed in the UK at least by the controversial Court of Appeal decision in Durant v FSA . Although the case itself is about disclosure of information in the financial services sector, somewhat unpredictably the main impact of Durant has been in what at first blush seems to be a remotely connected area, that of the field of legal regulation of closed circuit TV cameras (CCTV). |
