Written Question
Wales Office: Databases
Tuesday 8th May 2018

Asked by: Lord Harris of Haringey (Labour - Life peer)

Question to the Wales Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what percentage of the Wales Office's data is hosted (1) in the UK, and (2) overseas.

Answered by Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth

Wales Office data is hosted on the Ministry of Justice systems. The Ministry of Justice estimate that 90% of the data held is hosted in the UK and the remaining 10% overseas. Wales Office data cannot be disaggregated within this estimate. No standard methodology exists for calculating this figure, and as such a significant margin of error can be assumed.
