Will you be making a complaint under data protection legislation?
HM Revenue and Customs has lost computer discs containing the entire child benefit records, including the personal details of 25 million people - covering 7.25 million families overall. This is a breach of the data protection act to keep your data safe. You have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office which is the UK's independent authority set up to promote access to official information and to protect personal information.

As I understand it the information relates to those who qualify for child benefit. Child Benefit is a tax-free monthly payment to anyone bringing up a child or young person. It is not affected by income or savings so most people who are bringing up a child or young person qualify for it. (Additional qualifying conditions apply once a child reaches 16 years of age.). Therefore it would appear that if you have children and officially exist (eg pay tax etc) then your info is probably on the disks.)
So 'Stop Wasting my money' get your facts right before you start accusing people who's information security may have been abused of relying on hand outs. I for one don't but I have 2 young children and therefore believe my info may well be on the disk, although I work and get no tax credits.

Newsnight – The Mother Of All Government Blunders
Paxman hosts a Newsnight discussion / cross-examination on the evening of a government confession that the personal and financial records of 25 million UK citizens have been pumped out of a central database, burnt onto a couple of compact discs, and then lost....
A Labour spokeswoman is given the unenviable task of defending the indefensible. Listen to the Cambridge prof - not only does he speak absolute sense, but you have to admire the manner in which he calmly conveys to the viewer: "We tried to tell the government not to put all the eggs in one basket, but the arrogant bastards wouldn't listen".....
