EU DATA PROTECTION CHIEF CRITICISES FINGERPRINT PLAN

The splendidly named Mr. Hustinx, criticises the European Commission, which failed in its legal obligation to consult him on its proposal for a centralised fingerprints database. The Commission also proposed minimum standards for biometrics in passports, which is not objectionable in itself, but the European Data Supervisor should have been consulted.
I must find the link to the report on the Commision’s previous desires for centralised databases. National databases, but a legal structure for data sharing with judicial supervision, please!
