US Senate votes for privacy study on agencies' data-mining use

The United States Senate passed an amended version of the 2005 Department of Homeland Security spending bill that included a requirement that all federal agences that use data mining techniques report on the privacy impact of this activity. The version of the bill passed by the House of Representatives in June of this year did not contain such a requirement: See www.GovExec.com - Senate votes for privacy study on agencies' data-mining use (9/16/04).
