To quote the act:

The criminal offences created by the Act include:
  • unlawfully obtaining, disclosing, or procuring the disclosure of personal data;
  • selling, or offering to sell, personal data which has been unlawfully obtained;

ref www.ico.gov.uk/global/faqs/data_protecti...r_organisations.aspx
