£200 to prove your innocence.

The Scottish police routinely delete the DNA of people arrested but not convicted of any other offences. In England and Wales we are informed that it can take up to 10 months, involves five administrative stages and up to nine staff to get records removed. Tomorrow our poor Queen will have to announce that innocent people will have to pay £200 for the privilege of having their DNA removed from the database, under the terms of yet another policing bill.

Now could it be that ACPO Britain's most powerful police body, run as a private business with an annual income of around £18million, could possibly profit from this?
