“This is a summary of a longer report written in co-operation with the Economist Intelligence Unit. It examines the key issues surrounding the use and protection of personal data and draws on in-depth interviews with experts working on the front lines of public sector data management in the UK, Germany, France and Sweden, as well as academics and other authorities…Governments are continually expanding the breadth and depth of data they hold about their citizens, from the provision of public health and welfare services, to law enforcement and public security. In the pursuit of greater efficiency and improved public services, many are digitising operations and sharing information. However, the issues surrounding how to both deliver better service and safeguard private citizen data are becoming increasingly complex.”
