Legally, would it be possible to create subcategories of data? A recording, for example, of me in my car having been stopped for a traffic error of some kind might not need to be kept for very long but in domestic violence cases, a body of evidence might be gathered over a number of years. Could Mr. Sunderland envisage subcategories of data for different purposes? Is that okay legally? Is it the case that the data would not all have to be treated the same?
