Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the Information Commissioners’ Office has approved the data governance framework of the covid-19 tracing app being developed by NHSX.
This question was answered on 7th May 2020
The Department recognises that users must have trust and confidence in the way personal data is used to respond to the COVID-19 crisis. We are working with the Information Commissioner’s Office to help ensure a high level of transparency and governance. They will continue to offer that support during the life of the app as it is developed, rolled out and when it is no longer needed.
