Re:HMRC 'plans to share tax data with private firms' by DanBC on Saturday April 19, 2014 @10:21AM (#7613476)
A one time occurance; since which the law has been chNged to make that not possible and for which people have apologised.

While patient data was released (and possibly poorly anonymised) that was not "patient records" which have a defined meaning.

So the very worst example of "selling off patient records" wasn't patient records, only happened once, has been acknowledged as a failure, and can't happen again because the law has been changed since.
