	Spy cameras to track the every move of drivers 04 December 2005 According to an Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO), a strategy document was leaked to the Sunday Times about a 24x7 national vehicle movement database that is now being built. It going to be able log everything on the UK's roads and retains the data for at least two years. The new system, which will use Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR), will be overseen from a main control centre in Hendon, London. It is going to be like a 'Gatso 2' network, extending, enhancing and linking all existing CCTV, ANPR and speedcam systems and databases. Which perhaps explains why the egg heads in ACPO's tech section don't seem to have needed any kind of Parliamentary approval to begin the deployment of what promises to be one the most all-encompassing surveillance systems on our planet.
