Webinar: Briefing on the UK’s Data Use and Access Bill

About the event

Changing the rules that govern our personal data will impact our lives in many ways. The Bill will affect data in public services like the NHS, the role of US AI companies in decision-making, how Police can access records, and our relationship with data transfers between the EU.

During this event, we will hear from a range of civil society groups who will explain their concerns, and hopes for the Bill as the 2024 in-take of MPs debate data issues for the first time.

  Keep Our NHS Public (KONP) is a non-party political organisation that campaigns against the privatisation and underfunding of the NHS. Its Data Working Group acknowledges the importance of new technologies and sharing of NHS data when used in the public interest, while being against the use of personal health data for private profit. KONP is concerned about how the digitalisation of our healthcare system is providing huge opportunities for the private sector to become irreversibly embedded within the NHS.
