HC Deb 22 February 1991 vol 186 c276W
Mr. Wigley

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what steps he has taken to encourage the European Commission to adopt adequate standards of data protection; and whether he has any plans to propose the establishment of a Commissioner for data protection for Europe.

Mrs. Rumbold

We support any move by the Commission to ensure that all Community states ratify the European convention on data protection and introduce national implementing legislation. We have no plans to propose the establishment of a European data protection Commissioner.
