answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/07/2018 answer text <p>The European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into effect from 25 May, replacing the Data Protection Act 1998. Its provisions are directly applicable into national law, forming legal obligations that must be observed. Within the updated regulation is the right of access, which plays a central role in the GDPR. This updates similar provisions – known as Subject Access Request - that were available within the Data Protection Act 1998, giving individuals the right to obtain a copy of their personal data, including, from a health perspective, copies of medical records.</p><p> </p><p>Previously, under the Data Protection Act 1998, organisations were able to make a charge for dealing with the administration required in such a request. Under the GDPR, the ability in law to levy such charges has been removed in most cases. This is a blanket requirement of the GDPR, applicable to all businesses and public authorities which was subject to the collective agreement of all EU member states. There has been no assessment made on the cost of dealing with such requests. As was also the case previously with the Data Protection Act 1998, the GDPR does not prevent an individual making a subject access request via a third party, and if such a request is received organisations will need to make sure that the third party making the request is entitled to act on behalf of the individual.</p><p> </p><p>One exception to this principle is medical information required by insurance companies for underwriting purposes. The right of access under GDPR confers more personal information than is needed or is justified for insurance underwriting. Accordingly, insurance companies should instead use the established mechanism of the Access to Medical Reports Act 1988 (AMRA) to obtain summary medical reports from general practitioners (GPs). The AMRA allows the GP to charge a reasonable fee to cover the cost of copying the report.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price grouped question UIN 162499 question first answered 16/07/2018 17:03:22 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
