Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on Data Protection and Freedom of Information.


Data Protection and Freedom of Information

I entirely agree with my right hon. Friend that those protections are extremely necessary, but many of my constituents welcome data sharing because they are sick of being asked for the same information two, three, four or five times. The balance between the protections, on the one hand, and the ““ask once, use many times”” approach, on the other, is a difficult one to strike.
