A man has lost his appeal for a Newsquest newspaper to remove an archived story on his fraud conviction from its website. The Information Commissioner’s Office rejected the complaint that the paper was breaching the Data Protection Act 1998. He approached the newspaper and asked it to remove the report, arguing that it happened in January 2000 and was now spent under the terms of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974.
