We’ll have comments on the Single Palantir Record, the NHS Modernisation Bill, and the King’s Speech when we’ve seen the Bill.

That a now-resigned Minister announced an England only scheme to solve a problem he had in… Glasgow (not in England!)… suggests that a Secretary of State, Mr Mandelson’s political protege adding services to a customer of Mr Mandelson’s consultancy service, who even doesn’t want to have his current job when this Bill passes, might not have cared about all the details.

Will you be forced to have a Palantir Record, or will it be optional?

Will you be able to see who has accessed your notes, your prescriptions, and then your DNA?

Will those and other safeguards be on the face of the Bill, or will they be up to the whim of a Secretary of State on any given day?

[they’re not in the King’s Speech notes, so we might find out next week…]
