uin	13125
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/06/2022 answer text <p>As the Department responsible for securing adequacy from the EU, DCMS has a robust internal process for monitoring the risk of those decisions being revoked or amended. As the government made clear in the Data: a new direction consultation, we believe it is perfectly possible and reasonable to expect the UK to maintain EU adequacy as it designs a future regime.</p><p>The UK is firmly committed to maintaining high data protection standards - now and in the future. We will continue to operate a high-quality regime that promotes growth and innovation, and underpins the trustworthy use of data. EU adequacy decisions do not require an ‘adequate’ country to have the same rules, and our view is that the changes proposed in the consultation document are compatible with maintaining flows of personal data from Europe.</p><p>The UK has two EU adequacy decisions, under the General Data Protection Regulation and the Law Enforcement Directive. We recognise the importance of the EU adequacy decisions to public services, law enforcement and national security cooperation, and economic activity across a broad range of sectors. The Data: a new direction consultation included an <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1016471/Data_Reform_Impact_Analysis_Paper.pdf" target="_blank">assessment</a> of the impact of a change in adequacy status with the EU arising as a result of proposed reforms. We will further address concerns raised about the risk to these decisions in the Government response to the consultation.</p> answering member constituency Hornchurch and Upminster answering member printed Julia Lopez question first answered 13/06/2022 12:37:51 answering member 4647 label Biography information for Julia Lopez

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/06/2022 answer text <p>The use of incentives is in line with best practice for public surveys and is common practice across Government. Incentives improve survey response rates, which is important for ensuring we have enough representative data. Low response rates carry a number of risks including insufficient data to analyse, bias in survey results and reduced stakeholder confidence.</p><p>We keep abreast of relevant research (such as a <a href="https://www.ons.gov.uk/employmentandlabourmarket/peopleinwork/earningsandworkinghours/methodologies/howfacetofaceinterviewerattitudesandbeliefsmoderatetheeffectofmonetaryincentiveonuklabourforcesurveyresponserates" target="_blank">2020 ONS study</a>) and review our incentive strategy regularly to ensure it continues to represent good value for money for the taxpayer.</p><p>In 2021/22, Kantar Public issued, on behalf of DCMS, 33,841 vouchers (22,202 e-vouchers and 5,639 by post) as an incentive for completion of the 2021/22 Participation Survey.
