Abstract

This submission aims to address a selection of questions formulated in the government’s ‘Data: A New Direction’ consultation document by presenting findings and views based primarily on research undertaken by us, although we have also drawn on publicly available sources. As academics with expertise in the broader areas of data protection and technology regulation, we will focus specifically on three sections of the consultation: research purposes (Section 1.2), reform of the accountability framework (Section 2.2) and privacy and electronic communications (Section 2.4).
