>In November the European Parliament will be deciding its position on the
European Commission's proposal for a Directive on data retention - which
would log everyone's communications (phone, fax, mobiles including location,
e-mails and internet usage) and give access law enforcement agencies for the
foreseeable future. The UK Council Presidency (representing the 25 EU
governments) is demanding that the parliament rush through the measure by
the end of November under the 1st reading procedure ("fast-tracking"
intended for uncontroversial measures).
