The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) mishandled the confidential details of over 2,000 drivers, the company reported 439 data breaches, which affected 2,018 people.
These data breaches saw the DVLA send important documents – including driving licenses, passports and marriage certificates – to incorrect addresses, affecting the equivalent of around seven people per day.
The DVLA said the data breaches were the result of “human error” by staff at their headquarters in Swansea.
