Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 December 2024

Debate

Data (Use and Access) Bill [HL]

Contribution

I come to my other amendments, which, for some unknown reason, are grouped with the ones on NUAR. They about NHS IT, so it must be infrastructure—I suppose that must be the common factor between them. I happen to have a speaking note on this. The whole intent of my Amendments 193 to 195 is to seek clarification on two critical aspects. First, these information standards should explicitly apply to IT providers involved in the processing of data within primary care as well as secondary care. Secondly, the standards must extend to existing contracts with IT providers, not just new agreements formed after the passage of this legislation.
