Home Office: Members' Constituency Work

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the communication received by the hon. Member from Newton Abbot from her Department on 6 December 2022 stating that the Department proposes to respond to multiple constituent enquiries from hon. Members in a single letter, what advice her Department has received about the compatibility of those proposals with GDPR requirements.

The multi-response approach is compliant with GDPR guidelines. As is standard practice, MP’s offices are expected to ensure that they only share the information obtained from the Home Office with the relevant constituent to ensure compliance.
