To ask Her Majesty's Government whether all historic data of criminal convictions in the UK affected by the technical issues with the Police National Computer, reported in January, have now been passed to relevant EU member states; and if not, why not.
Answered on

The UK’s Criminal Records Office (ACRO) has worked closely with technical teams in the Home Office who manage the Police National Computer (PNC) to implement a technical fix to ensure the data is shared with affected Member States.
Each affected Member State was informed when the historic data held on the PNC became available. ACRO has now sent the majority of those notifications to Member States.’
The latest issue on PNC deletions does not affect our transmission of data to the EU.
