Compulsory data retention for both telecoms and Internet data moved a step closer as the Home Office published the results of its data retention consultation and the final draft Regulations. These Regulations, which implement the Data Retention Directive, will become law on 6 April 2009 (the original deadline for implementation was 15 March but the UK Government appear to have extended this to 6 April).
