The Bill allows the processing of sensitive and criminal conviction data in the absence of consent where justification exists, for example bodies responsible for the fight against doping in sport. We are working to ensure there are no unintended consequences contained in the Data Protection Bill which hamper the effective governance of sports by national governing bodies of sport and other relevant sports bodies.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 23/10/2017 11:32:38 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde
