Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what provision he will make for patients to be able to opt out of having their information stored on the Federated Data Platform.

Where applicable, National Data opt outs and Type 1 opt outs will apply to the Federated Data Platform. These opt outs apply where confidential patient information is being processed for secondary purposes and will not apply to an individual's direct care.
