answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/10/2019 answer text <p>All EU Member States are bound by Article 1 of Protocol 1 to the European Convention on Human Rights, which obliges them to respect property rights. This includes those who own property, own shares in a property and those who own a property and let it to tenants.

Individuals considering purchasing a property in an EU Member State should check with local authorities to confirm how these laws apply to them.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Rochford and Southend East answering member printed James Duddridge question first answered 01/10/2019 13:59:12 answering member 1559 label Biography information for Sir James Duddridge

tabling member constituency	Leigh
tabling member printed	Jo Platt
uin	284438
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2019 answer text <p>We estimate there are approximately 2,300 machines in the National Health Service currently still operating on Windows XP which is no longer supported by Microsoft. To be compliant with the mandatory Data Security and Protection Toolkit, NHS organisations must operate on supported systems or have plans in place to mitigate the risk such as segregating those machines from the network. There are valid reasons why some machines cannot be upgraded from Windows XP, primarily where they run essential locally developed clinical systems that cannot be upgraded or replaced.</p><p>We are supporting NHS organisations to upgrade their existing Microsoft Windows operating systems, allowing them to reduce potential vulnerabilities and increase cyber resilience.</p><p>We signed a multi-million pound contract with Microsoft in 2018 to support the NHS to upgrade their existing Microsoft Windows operating systems onto Windows 10.</p><p>All health and care organisations that have access to NHS patient data must annually complete NHS Digital’s Data Security and Protection Toolkit. This details the standards we expect them to adhere to and Data Security Standard 8 advocates that no unsupported operating systems, software or internet browsers are used within the IT estate.</p> answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries question first answered 09/09/2019 19:13:26 answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries
