The London Clinic, where Kate Middleton underwent abdominal surgery in January, is investigating claims that some members of staff attempted to access her private medical records. Since the news of the investigation broke insiders have claimed to The Mirror that "up to three people" might have been involved in this breach of privacy.
Accessing someone’s medical records without cause or consent is a criminal offence. If the ICO investigates and finds evidence that medical records were accessed illegally, it can take action, including prosecuting and fining the person responsible in court. Scotland Yard has also been urged to launch an investigation over fears of a potential royal blackmail plot. Dai Davies, the former chief superintendent and head of the royal protection unit, said: "Anyone accused of this most serious breach of trust should be interviewed under caution at the earliest opportunity.
