	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/12/2014 answer text <p>This Government inherited over 223,000 records - dating from before December 2008 - with very poor data quality, and no structured plan. Alongside wider work to restore control to our immigration system, particularly through abolishing the UK Border Agency, the Government initiated a programme to bring sense to this stock of old records. Having identified and taken out records relating to those people known to have left the country, as well as duplicate and erroneous records, the number of meaningful pre-2008 records is just over 89,000. Those are now being addressed in the proper way.</p><p /> answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire question first answered 11/12/2014 17:10:02 answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire

It is the Chief Constable's responsibility, as the data owner in law, to ensure that any data recorded on the <br>PNC is accurate. <br><br>When a person is recorded on the PNC it is done so in the name they provided to the police at the time of the event. That name lasts for the lifetime of the record and aliases are recorded as and when known and records are consolidated <br>where appropriate. <br><br>When a person is arrested their fingerprints may be taken, as well as a DNA sample. The fingerprints are checked against the criminal fingerprint system (IDENT 1). The individual’s DNA profile is also checked against the National <br>DNA Database (NDNAD). Where either of these biometric searches matches with the offender, the PNC records in relation to the previous results are automatically linked with the current arrest, regardless of the names previously used.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hornsey and Wood Green answering member printed Lynne Featherstone question first answered 15/12/2014 16:05:59 answering member 1531 label Biography information for Baroness Featherstone
