Routine journeys carried out by millions of British motorists can be monitored by authorities in the United States and other enforcement agencies across the world under anti-terrorism rules introduced discreetly by Jacqui Smith.例行的行程，所进行的以百万计的英国驾驶者可以监察当局在美国和其他执法机构在世界各地根据反恐怖主义规则介绍慎重由jacqui史密斯。

Yesterday, politicians and civil liberties groups accused the Home Secretary of keeping the plans to export pictures secret from Parliament when she announced last year that British anti-terrorism police could access “real time” images from cameras used in the running of London’s congestion charge.昨天，政治家和公民自由团体的指责英国内政大臣保持计划将图片导出秘密从议会时，她去年宣布，英国反恐警察可以进入的“实时”的图像从相机中使用的运行伦敦的交通挤塞电荷。
A statement by Miss Smith to Parliament on July 17, 2007, detailing the exemptions for police from the 1998 Data Protection Act, did not mention other changes that would permit material to be sent outside the European Economic Area (EEA) to the authorities in the US and elsewhere.声明小姐史密斯向议会提交关于2007年7月17日，详述豁免警方从1998年数据保护法，并没有提及其他的变化将允许材料将被送到欧洲经济区以外（欧经区）向有关当局在该美国和其他地方。
Her permission to do so was hidden away in an earlier “special certificate” signed by the Home Secretary on July 4.她的许可，这样做是藏在早先的“特别证书”的签署是由民政司于七月四日。
The certificate specifically sets out the level of data that can be sent to enforcement authorities outside the European Economic Area (the EU plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) by anti-terrorist officers from the Metropolitan Police.证书具体列明的水平，数据可传送给执法机关以外的欧洲经济区（欧盟加上冰岛，列支敦士登和挪威）反恐人员从首都警察。 It says:它说：
“The certificate relates to the processing of the images taken by the camera, personal data derived from the images, including vehicle registration mark, date, time and camera location.” “证书，涉及到处理图像时所采取的相机，个人资料来自图像，包括车辆登记马克，日期，时间和相机的位置” 。
A spokesman for Richard Thomas, the information commissioner, confirmed that the certificate had been worded so that the images of private cars, as well as registration numbers, could be sent outside to countries such as the USA.发言人理查德托马斯，信息专员，证实该证书已措辞，使图像私家车，以及登记号码，可以送交以外的国家，例如美国。
Officers from the Metropolitan Police have been given the right to view in “real time” any CCTV images from cameras that are meant to be enforcing the congestion charge.人员由大都会警察局已获得的权利，以查看在的“实时”任何闭路电视图像从相机的意思是要执行拥挤费。
Sources said that officers would access the cameras on behalf of overseas authorities if they were informed about a terrorism threat in the UK or elsewhere.有消息说，人员将进入相机的名义海外有关当局，如果他们了解恐怖主义的威胁，在英国或其他地方。 They would then share the images, which can be held for five years before being destroyed, if necessary.然后他们将分享图像，可举行5年前被摧毁，如果必要的。
Last night, Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, said: “This confirms that this Government is happy to hand over potentially huge amounts of information on British citizens under the catch-all pretext of ‘national security’.”昨晚，尼克Clegg先生，自由民主党领袖，说： “这证实，这个政府是很乐意交出潜在的巨大的信息量对英国公民，根据包罗一切为借口， '国家安全' ” 。
Civil liberties campaigners said they were appalled that images of innocent people’s journeys could end up in the hands of the British police, let alone foreign investigators.民权运动人士说，他们震惊的图像无辜的人的行程，最终可能在手中的英国警方，更遑论外国调查。
They feared that it was a move towards the US-style system of “data mining” - in which powerful computers sifted millions of pieces of information as they tried to build patterns of behaviour and match them to material about suspects.他们担心，这是一个走向美国式的系统“数据挖掘” -在这种强大的计算机筛选出的数百万件的资料，他们试图建立的行为模式和匹配他们的物质有关嫌疑人。
Gus Hosein, who runs Privacy International, said he was making a complaint to the information commissioner having obtained a copy of the certificate. GUS的hosein ，谁违背了国际隐私，他说，作出投诉，信息专员获得的证书副本。
However, the Home Office defended the powers in the certificate, which was signed specifically for the purposes of counter terrorism and national security.然而，家庭办公室辩护的权力，在该证书，这是签署了专为目的，反恐怖主义和国家安全。
A spokesman declined to say how many times images had been sent from London to other countries.发言人拒绝透露有多少次的图片已送往从伦敦到其他国家。
However, he added: “We would like to reassure the public that robust controls have been put in place to control and safeguard access to, and use of, the information.”不过，他补充说： “我们想安抚市民，鲁棒控制已落实到位，控制和维护，获取和利用，信息” 。
