Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impacts of life recorders, particularly in regard to privacy and security, and what plans they have to take legal, regulatory or other action in response.

All UK organisations processing personal data must comply with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act (DPA) 2018. This applies to all technologies, including AI-based life recorders. The UK GDPR and the DPA, are risk-based and technology neutral, ensuring organisations process data lawfully, fairly, and transparently. On data security, the UK has strong safeguards, regulatory oversight, and enforcement to ensure responsible data handling. We continuously assess evolving threats to UK data and will take further action if necessary to protect national security.
