The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what assessment his Department has made of the potential impact of the National Data Library on AI model training; and what steps he is taking to ensure that data access frameworks (a) enable innovation and (b) safeguard privacy.
Answered by Feryal Clark
The NDL will unlock the value of public data assets. It will provide simple, secure and ethical access to our key public data assets for researchers, policy makers and business – including those at the frontier of AI development – and make it easier to find, discover and make connections across different datasets.
Where data sharing involves personal data, it must comply with the UK’s data protection legislation. This will equally apply to the National Data Library.
We will set out further details on the National Data Library shortly.
