MacAskill had the right to access to those records leading up his decision. The US and the wider public in Scotland and the UK, including the ill-informed James Kelly of the Labour Party, do not have that right. I do hope Mr Kelly's constituents take note that he is all for making medical records public on request! Maybe Mr Kelly could also get a quick crash course from his bosses in London about Data Protection. They used it to support withholding evidence needed for Megrahi's appeal. <br /><br />It is also worth repeating Doctors who were part of Megrahi's treatment Team have the absolute right to remain anonymous for their own safety. They could be put at risk if they were named. That is why their names were blanked out on the reports. <br /><br />As for these senators, it is also worth repeating that their status in this debate is zero. They have no jurisdiction here and I think it is time the First Minister took this up a notch and told them to go and dig up votes some other way and take their noses out of the affairs of other countries.Jo Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08536467440869239587noreply@blogger.com
