To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps she is taking to help enable UK citizens to control their own data.

The government has put together an ambitious package of reforms to create a new data protection regime that is pro-growth and trusted for our citizens and businesses.
Our proposed regime should incentivise organisations to invest more effectively in the governance, policies and tools that protect personal data so that UK citizens can have even greater confidence that personal data is being used responsibly.
We recently consulted on our proposed reforms and will be setting out next steps shortly.
