Note from Stewart Dresner, Privacy Laws & Business:
"I stated in the podcast that retaining personal data for its purpose, in this case for Covid-19 tracing, (the purpose limitation principle) is a longstanding principle going back to the UK’s Data Protection Act 1984. I wrote an article in The Economist in 1987 reflecting the importance of this principle by referring to the first use of a search warrant by the Data Protection Registrar [the regulator] to investigate a part-time policeman who was suspected of using the Police National Computer to check up on the boyfriend of his daughter. A similar case involving a policeman, who worked part-time as a debt collector, led ultimately to a decision in the UK’s highest court referenced as R. v. Brown [1996] 1 AC543 on interpretation of the Data Protection Act 1984 Section 1 (7)" http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1984/35/section/1/enacted

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
