The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when was data added to the NHS Federated Data Platform for (a) NHS trusts and (b) integrated care systems.
Answered by Karin Smyth
The NHS Federated Data Platform (FDP) began rolling out to National Health Service trusts in April 2024, following a pilot phase from 2022. Integrated care boards began receiving their local instances from September 2024. Each organisation controls its own instance, enabling secure data sharing, where permitted by data protection law and supported by the appropriate governance.
