Oct 24, 2024, 01:57 PM
The UK government has introduced a new Data Use and Access Bill, which aims to harness the power of data to boost the economy by £10 billion. The bill, spearheaded by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT), is expected to free up 1.5 million police hours and save 140,000 hours in NHS staff time. Additionally, it will speed up construction work and make it safer. The bill is also seen as a key element in kickstarting economic growth, improving public services, and relieving administrative burdens on frontline workers. The initiative revives plans to reform GDPR to better suit economic goals.
