More personal data lost?

Why are provisional drivers details in Iowa, USA? Why is an American company contracted to deal with these details? Isn't there a British company that can handle this? They are saying this is less serious than losing the previous two discs, but they contain names, addresses, telephone numbers and e-mail addresses. This is very serious and breaching the Governments own Data Protection law. Surely this Government needs to answer some very serious questions. If they cannot safeguard peoples personal details, what hope is there for the protection of people in general. They have a total disregard for peoples rights, which considering the tax payers are paying their salaries a lack of respect that can only be considered insulting.

    Yes that's what I'd like to know. Surely we must have the capability to deal with our own info'.

    The mafia cleared up their act, they legally sell security now, whether it is to other countries through the government or to regular people by stealing their information and then selling products to protect your identity or by creating viruses in the Internet and selling anti virus, security has been their business all the time.
