BASC deer stalkers register - this is not a slight to those without DSC2

[Mike L]

So much angst and veiled suggestions of skullduggery from someone so uninterested in joining the scheme?

I started to register as a DSC2 qualified and a long term BASC member , then I realised there is absolutely no safeguards to how the information is used . Seems like a good way for the local office to bag a lot of stalking for themselves and their mates to me .
Now if i am wrong here please feel free to post the safeguards that are being put in place BASC because i have grave doubts about this based on experiences, though the years . Like a BASC employee gaining stalking land or favour ??
I think BASC should stay well away from this its a nightmare in the making , one that very likely could finish or diminish trust in the current membership ( even via a few whispers)
Stick to what BASC have always done and leave well alone , been to many close calls for BASC regards the Wildfowling clubs in the past !

Data would just fall under data protection legislation.

As for BASC staff benefiting, just gave a rule that a) BASC staff cannot shoot on any land on the register, and b) BASC staff should have to list on a conflict of interests register all their shooting permissions so that it can be verified.
To be fair, if BASC don’t already do this irrespective of the deer stalking register, they probably should.
