Accordingly, clause 47 contains a savings provision to ensure that the single patient record can be used as a source of data for secondary uses only where there is a separate legal basis to do so. The clause does not provide any new legal gateways for secondary use. That means that the single patient record can only be

I am grateful to hon. Members for this debate.

Patient data is at the heart of the NHS, and it is important to help plan and run health and social care services; we have discussed that before, and a lot of these points have already been recorded in our earlier conversations. The security and privacy of people’s health and care data are
