From Computing magazine:
Two prominent Labour ministers have defended the government’s stance on personal internet security in the face of criticism from the House of Lords that not enough is being done to protect individuals.
Baroness Vadera, parliamentary under-secretary of state for the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (BERR) supported the government’s rejection of calls for a data breach notification law.
…
And Vernon Coaker, under-secretary of state for the Home Office, stood by a decision to make banks the first port of call for reporting fraud.
