	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/04/2014 answer text <p>UK officials and their Cameroon counterparts hold regular discussions on the Central African Republic (CAR), including the impact of cross-border violence and refugees. We both agree that the international community's top priority is to protect civilians and stop the violence; this is in the best interests of both CAR and the region as a whole including Cameroon. We therefore welcome the continued efforts of African Union and French forces in CAR, and welcome the imminent deployment of European troops to provide further assistance.</p> answering member printed Lord Wallace of Saltaire question first answered 25/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 1816 label Biography information for Lord Wallace of Saltaire

	uin	HL7004
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/05/2014 answer text <p>National Health Service organisations are individually responsible for managing incidents where patient data has been compromised. Guidance provided by the Health and Social Care Information Centre is that data subjects should be informed when personal data about them has been lost or inappropriately placed in the public domain, unless the cost of doing so would be prohibitive or the risk to those concerned is judged to be minimal. Where there is any risk of identity theft it is strongly recommended that this is done.</p><p> </p><p>There are no central guidelines on remedies or compensation. Individuals whose data has been compromised may make a complaint through local NHS complaints procedures or if they believe that an incident resulted from a breach of data protection requirements they may report this to the Information Commissioner. In some circumstances individuals might seek redress through the Civil Courts.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Earl Howe question first answered 14/05/2014 12:00:00 answering member 2000 label Biography information for Earl Howe

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/05/2014 answer text <p>Anonymised records cannot include the last three digits of a postcode and would generally not include postcodes at all. A postcode is sometimes needed for analytical purposes, for example to calculate distances from a specific point such as a hazard but where this is the case, the data cannot be classed as anonymised and so there must be a clear legal basis for its use.</p> answering member printed Earl Howe question first answered 13/05/2014 12:00:00 answering member 2000 label Biography information for Earl Howe
