It does concern me that the police are to video all and any contacts with the public. If an officer speaks to me, I'd find it unnerving that I'm being recorded. Time for me to start wearing a niqab?

Good start.
And what is the penalty to police officers when they disobey the rules and DO NOT activate the cameras? It seems that's the case of two of the three officers in the incident referenced above.
The retention period should be revised with an eye towards best practices. If MP is going to keep it longer, public access and data mining should be allowed, to answer many long standing questions.
