Baroness Kidron (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 28 January 2025

Debate

Data (Use and Access) Bill [HL]

Contribution

I thank the Minister and the Government. As I have just said, we have been fighting for this since 2018, so that is quite something. I forgot to say in my opening remarks that edtech does not, of course, have an absolute definition. However, in my mind—it is important for me to say this to the House—it includes management, safety and tech that is used for educational purposes. All those are in schools, and we have evidence of problems with all of them. I was absolutely delighted to hear the Government’s commitments, and I look forward to working with the ICO and the department. With that, I beg leave to withdraw.
