@I ain't Spartacus "It seems to me that the data commissioner has got it wrong here."

It does, doesn't it. How is it any different from a human operator viewing the live CCTV feed for faces that match photos of barred individuals. Data capture is CCTV, the information being collected is the same, FR or human operator.

What personal information is being captured and stored as an image for .004 seconds that is not being captured and stored on CCTV video for a lot longer?

The FR processing is collecting no more personal information than CCTV has already collected
