The Government has no plans to ban companies from selling personal data to third parties. The Data Protection Act 1998 (DPA) does not prohibit disclosures of personal data to third parties, but it regulates the circumstances in which this can be done. As a minimum, companies should tell individuals what they are going to do with their personal data and with whom this will be shared.<\/p>
<\/p>
In cases where organisations do not comply with the DPA the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) has a range of powers to take action, including the power to serve a Civil Monetary Penalty (CMP) of up to £500,000. In the most serious cases, section 55 of the DPA makes it an offence for a person to knowingly or recklessly obtain, disclose or procure the disclosure of personal data without the consent of the data controller. The offence is punishable by an unlimited fine for cases heard in the Crown Court and a fine of a maximum of £5,000 for cases heard in the magistrates\u2019 courts.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/194", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Simon Hughes"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bermondsey and Old Southwark"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Simon Hughes"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2015-03-09", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2015-03-09T15:50:52.057Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "54"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2015-03-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Disclosure of Information"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if he will bring forward legislative proposals to prohibit companies selling an individual's personal information to third parties.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3973", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Grahame Morris"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Easington"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Grahame M.

Prison library providers make sure that the range of reading and reference material available in each library reflects the diverse needs of the prisoners held. Prison Service Instruction 02/2015, published in February 2015, has an expectation that the language needs of prisoners should be met where this is reasonably possible. The number of books available in any given language will be proportionate to the population's requirement.<\/p>
<\/p>
An inter-library loan request service, facilitated by the librarian or library assistant, enables prisoners to request books in the same way as library users in the community. Welsh speakers can ask for Welsh language books to be provided via this service.<\/p>
<\/p>
Information about what particular Welsh language library books are stocked in female prisons in England is not held centrally and will need to be collated through enquiries at these prisons. At HMP Eastwood Park, which holds the largest number of women with home postcodes in Wales, and also at HMP Styal, I have enquired about the availability of Welsh language books and seen Welsh language books in both libraries. I will write to the hon Member when we have been able to obtain any additional information about Welsh language books in other women\u2019s prisons.<\/p>
<\/p>
Women prisoners whose home postcode is in Wales have the same access to facilities as all other women prisoners, to support their appropriate rehabilitation and their resettlement back to Welsh communities. This includes the provision of Welsh language services, under the Welsh Language Scheme, for prisoners whose preferred language is Welsh.<\/p>
<\/p>
There are strong links between HMP Eastwood Park and the National Offender Management Service in Wales. A number of initiatives provide resettlement support to Welsh women prisoners there. These include the Integrated Offender Management Cymru: Women's Pathfinder project, which is seeking to design and deliver a women-specific, integrated, whole-system approach to working with those who come into contact with the criminal justice system in Wales and which includes other relevant female prisons.<\/p>
<\/p>
HMP Styal, which holds women whose home is in North Wales, also has strong links with Wales. As a member of the Women\u2019s Pathfinder Project Board along with HMP Eastwood Park, Styal is involved in the development of the project, which is due to be piloted in North Wales from April 2015 and which will link directly with the prison.<\/p>
<\/p>
The new arrangements for transforming rehabilitation are expected to strengthen the links between women offenders whose homes are in Wales, and all the prisons in which they serve their sentence.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/194", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Simon Hughes"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bermondsey and Old Southwark"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Simon Hughes"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2015-03-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2015-03-11T14:28:42.257Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "54"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2015-03-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Prisoners: Females"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what (a) Welsh language library books and (b) other facilities there are for women in English prisons whose home postcode is in Wales.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1573", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mrs Siân C.
