That's a bit of a moot point, since the police do this anyway. Although
the police are prohibited from so doing, the Police & Criminal Evidence
Act does not make it an offence is they do knowingly seize privileged or
special procedure material (e.g. medical records), nor is there any
punishment for breaking the law in this way. So, in my case, the police
seized material that they were prohibited from seizing and argued the
toss later. They break the law but it seems commit no offence and are
not subject to any punishment. In other words, they do as they damn
well please with no fear of accountability. And that's justice?

Don't forget that Keith Halliwell wanted every newborn to be DNA
profiled immediately after birth.
