To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she has had recent discussions with the police on the replacement of the Police National Database.
- Answer
-
The Home Office established the Public Safety Group Commissioning Board as part of a broader reform programme to strengthen governance and accountability for major technology initiatives and investments. The Board and its sub groups include representatives from the policing sector to provide strategic oversight, ensure value for money, and manage risk across the complex national policing technology portfolio.
The purpose of the Commissioning Board is to drive improvements in public safety and enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of policing and law enforcement through digital transformation. A key component of this portfolio is the Police National Database, which is regularly discussed given its critical role.
