Scotland's People data breach - adopted children

[kiterunner]

But I did find this in the Daily Mail's report: A spokesperson for National Records of Scotland said: 'We are currently reviewing the way indexed entries from the Adopted Children Register are presented on the ScotlandsPeople website. 'NRS has a statutory responsibility to make our registers open and searchable.
'Relevant entries have been removed as a precautionary measure while we review the way we make this information available.'

Interesting since I remember a few years ago, a website (I forget which one it was) put the England and Wales adoption index online and the GRO forced them to remove it. But it is still available to search at certain large libraries, though not on computers. But there is nothing linking a particular birth certificate with a particular adoption index entry. But I can't work out from the news reports whether there was some such link on Scotland's People, or if the mother who complained just knew the two records were for the same person because she had adopted him.
