	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/04/2018 answer text <p>Section 3 of the <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/536134/civil_service-nationality_rules_20_june__2016.pdf" target="_blank">Civil Service Nationality Rules Guidance</a> sets out the criteria for those posts which are, and those which are capable of being reserved for UK nationals in the Civil Service. Reserved posts are generally those which, due to the sensitive nature of the work, require special allegiance to the Crown such that they can only be held by a UK national. Where a post falls within one of the categories listed in paragraph 3.6. of this guidance, the Minister responsible for the department or agency must consider whether it is necessary to reserve that post for UK nationals only. A small number of <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/307931/AnnexE_Prescribed_Public_Bodies.pdf" target="_blank">public sector bodies</a> are also able to apply the Civil Service Nationality Rules, however the Cabinet Office does not hold information on the extent that these rules are applied in these organisations.</p> answering member constituency Hertsmere answering member printed Oliver Dowden question first answered 26/04/2018 11:40:44 answering member 4441 label Biography information for Oliver Dowden

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/04/2018 answer text <p>The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) is responsible for regulating compliance with data protection legislation. The Government's Data Protection Bill will strengthen legislation around data protection and give the Commissioner tougher powers to ensure that organisations comply.</p><p>As part of this Bill, the Information Commissioner’s office will now be responsible for producing a new statutory age appropriate design code for online services which are likely to be accessed by children. This code will help ensure that children in the UK are granted a robust data regime so they are able to access online services in a way that meets their age and development needs. It will ensure that websites and applications are designed in a way that makes clear what data is being collected on children, how this data is being used, and how both children and parents can stay in control of this data. Non-compliance with this code will be a factor in any ICO decision to bring forward enforcement action against websites that do not comply with the GDPR.</p><p> </p><p>The Information Commissioner provides guidance and works with organisations to build compliance. There are a number of tools available to the ICO to ensure compliance with GDPR, including criminal prosecution, non-criminal enforcement and audit. For those who commit serious breaches there are significant financial penalties including fines up to £18 million or 4% of global turnover that can be applied as well as the backstop of criminal prosecution.</p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 26/04/2018 09:20:34 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James
