脱氧核糖核酸数据库不应该大概是延长的，并且应该一定适合普遍，家庭办公室大臣McNulty说的托尼， 写马修·乔治.

他也告诉了共同性内部事件委员会，是探询英国是否有监视社会，这样恐惧是神话“肉”。

他坚持监视管理通信的失察-排列通过脱氧核糖核酸数据库和CCTV照相机到自动车号牌公认(ANPR)和拦截-是健壮的。

“哥哥或大姐想法坐大家的肩膀做了不起的拷贝为报纸-，但它不简单地是实际情形”。

A review of the DNA database, being conducted as part of a wider look at the operation of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act (PACE) which underpins it, will conclude later this year.

McNulty said it was looking at DNA retention issues, especially concerning under-18s and whether those not convicted of crimes should go on it, as well as if PACE should continue as the statutory basis, or whether the database should have its own primary legislation.

The recent convictions of murderers Steve Wright and Mark Dixie as a result of the database sparked a debate over whether it should be universal.

Lincolnshire chief constable Tony Lake, who speaks for the Association of Chief Police Officers on the database, says if it were universal there is absolutely no doubt more crimes would be solved.

Even more controversially, Gary Pugh, Scotland Yard’s director of forensic services, said primary school should be eligible for the database if they behaved in a way that indicated criminality in later life.

McNulty told the committee he was not convinced by a national DNA database: “There is a logic to it, but I cannot accept it. Broadly, where we are now is where we should be.”

However he stressed he did not agree with the premise the database was counter to civil liberties, not least because of the high-profile murder cases solved by because suspects being on it for minor crimes, such as assault.

Asked about Pugh’s comments, he replied: “I do not accept what he said at all and nor do Acpo as I understand it. We are getting into the realms of potential guilt or future guilt, and I don’t accept that at all.”

He would “probably lean against” putting non-recordable crimes on the database, and there would not be such a move if he has his way.
