Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the policy on data sharing is for providers subcontracted under the Modern Slavery Victim Care Contract; and when the temporary restrictions placed on providers sharing data will be reviewed.

In March, a contract change was agreed within the Modern Slavery Victim Care Contract (MSVCC).

This contract change specifically facilitates for the use of sensitive authority data (whilst providing better oversight of data protection risks) in research projects by sub-contractors of that contract.
