Proceeding contribution from Dominic Raab (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on Data Protection in the Areas of Police and Criminal Justice (EU Directive).


Data Protection in the Areas of Police and Criminal Justice (EU Directive)

On that point. May I quote to the Minister directly from paragraph 50 of the impact assessment? It says that criminal justice sector agencies may also be prosecuted directly or via the Information Commissioner's Office if they fail to protect personal data. This will represent a cost to them in terms of defending themselves in court and in paying fines and/or compensation that may result from these cases. Does that not conflict directly with what he has just told the House?
