Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what personal data is held on the database of people who have received a COVID-19 vaccination; and who can that data be shared with.
Within NHS Digital, information is held on people who have received a COVID-19 vaccination including their name, postcode, date of birth, National Health Service number, gender, date of COVID-19 vaccination, type of vaccine received and batch number. The data can be shared with the person’s general practitioner practice, Public Health England, the Joint Biosecurity Centre, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency and the Scientific Pandemic Influenza Group on Modelling. The data can also be shared with organisations or individuals via NHS Digital Data Access Request Service, subject to them being able to meet strict data governance standards and having an appropriate legal basis.
