Hi,
Does any one know why we aim to keep bank account data securely.
Why do we aim to keep personal data such as bank account details confidential.
why would paying a person his wage in cash not be a prefereed option.
Many thanks,
Emilie

Hi Emilie.
Why do you think we keep personal information confidential?
Can you think of what the relevant law is?
Clue - ? ? Act

Awww, don't be mean Scott!
The relevant act is the Data Protection Act, Emilie, details of which can be found here;

The answers to your other questions are pretty obvious though and you do really need to think about them yourself!
Why might it be risky paying Scott his £3,000 weekly wages in cash rather than paying them by cheque or BACS?
What might happen if someone got hold of your own personal bank account details?

Nah, I was only ribbing you Scott and I can see your point. There's a big difference between gentle guidance which is what we try to do and giving someone the answers which is what we shouldn't!
