answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/04/2016 answer text <p>Government departments are fully committed to ensuring that the risks of identity fraud are minimised in transactions requiring photographs to be submitted. Currently applicants send paper photographs through the postal service. Technology now enables digital photographs to be submitted in online applications. In whichever channel is used the applicant must attest that the picture is a true likeness and departments put processes in place to assess the end-to-end risks of identity fraud. New technology has the potential to reduce fraud in this process, and we are investigating how technology can be used in a way that is both safe and cost effective.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matthew Hancock question first answered 11/04/2016 09:52:46 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/04/2016 answer text <p>Cyber threats transcend borders and so international cooperation is crucial to keep the UK safe. Whilst protection of the UK’s critical national infrastructure is a national security issue, and therefore outside the authority of the European Commission, we work closely with the EU to promote the UK’s vision of a free, open, peaceful and secure cyber space internationally. Our partnership with EU countries help improve our ability to manage cyber security risks, through initiatives likes CERT-CERT cooperation and the work of the European Union Agency for Network and Information Security, which promotes best practice and knowledge on cyber security. As a result, we are safer, stronger, and a better off as a member of the EU.</p> answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matthew Hancock question first answered 11/04/2016 09:53:36 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock
