answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/07/2020 answer text <p>The Coronavirus Act 2020 was designed to support public services in dealing with the effects of the pandemic as well as directly tackling it. We will keep those elements of the Act that continue to be necessary – either currently or where future risks still exist. The necessity of maintaining any temporary provision will need to be judged by its effectiveness in meeting its policy objective. The Government will set out the details of such assessments in the six month report due in September (subject to the Parliamentary calendar). These assessments will of course be guided by the scientific advice we receive.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries question first answered 07/07/2020 10:30:13 answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries previous answer version 34397 answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/07/2020 answer text <p>NHS Test and Trace is a key part of the country’s ongoing COVID-19 response. If we can rapidly detect people who have recently come into close contact with a person who is confirmed to have COVID-19, we can take swift action to minimise transmission of the virus. This is important as lockdown measures are eased and will help us return to a more normal way of life and reduce the risk of needing further lockdowns in the future. Hospitality businesses should assist this service by keeping a temporary record of their staff, customers and visitors for 21 days and assist NHS Test and Trace with requests for that data if needed.</p><p>The Government has published guidance setting out the data that needs to be collected for Test and Trace purposes, and how organisations should do this in a way that respects people’s privacy and personal data, in line with the General Data Protection Regulation.
