Debate
Border Security, Asylum and Immigration BillContribution
I turn to Amendment 188. I hope, again in the spirit of friendship and co-operation, that I can also reassure the noble Lords, Lord Davies and Lord Cameron, regarding their amendments, that using personal data for legitimate purposes such as immigration control is already permitted under data protection law. Disapplying data protection rules in a blanket fashion for certain groups is therefore unnecessary. It could also disadvantage individuals who are the most vulnerable people in society, such as the victims of trafficking.
