I'M SORRY !!!!!

Brown apologises for records loss
Gordon Brown
Mr Brown said the government was not "complacent" about the losses

Prime Minister Gordon Brown has said he "profoundly regrets" the loss of 25 million child benefit records.

He apologised in the Commons for the "inconvenience and worries" caused and said the government was working to prevent the data being used for fraud.

But Conservative leader David Cameron said the government had "failed in its first duty to protect the public".

The Revenue and Customs data on the two missing discs includes names, dates of birth, bank and address details.
