Amendment summary
Baroness Neville-Jones moved, as an amendment to the motion that the draft Order be approved, at end to insert “but notes with regret the intrusions into privacy that would result from their implementation, in that the Regulations substantially extend the range of communications data that must be collected to include information on personal emails and internet activity, and that the Regulations allow hundreds of different public bodies access to information on personal emails and internet activity; and therefore calls upon the Government to withdraw the Regulations, and to introduce primary legislation on the retention of communications data that will enable detailed parliamentary scrutiny of such proposals.”
