200 police officers and staff in Northern Ireland not told of theft involving data for a month

Some 200 police officers and staff were not informed of the theft of devices and documents with data potentially affecting them for almost a month, the Police Service of Northern Ireland has confirmed.
The theft from a car parked in Newtownabbey emerged last week following news of a major data breach during which some details of 10,000 officers and staff were published online for a number of hours on Tuesday.
