Blunkett details DNA database
Home Secretary David Blunkett is to give details on how two million people are about to be listed on a national DNA crime database.
The government originally said in 2000 that it wanted to have three million personal profiles on the system by 2004. This was thought to be the whole of the "criminal class". The last three years have seen a 50% increase in the crimes solved using DNA samples.
