I thank Mr. Carroll for his presentation. The EU seems to be doing its best to make the regulation of data protection as impenetrable as possible, as we see from the regulations and directives. To make a general point, we have laws in this country dealing with data protection and when this Bill is enacted, the laws will be extended. Will it be the case that there will be a group of people who will then be covered by data protection law who at present are not covered, or is it that individuals will remain the same and that there will be a greater emphasis on certain areas?
