Prompted by @LynnFOI, a [Thread] on the #NHSTrusts that cut #commercial deals to #copy their patients' data* to (formerly) Lord Drayson's now-delisted "AI" company, @SensyneHealth
First up, it's...

*More info on the nature of the data they sold here:
1) @OUHospitals (Oxford University Hospitals) took £5 million in @SensyneHealth shares for its patients' data in July 2017:
sensynehealth.com/newsroom/drays…
It LOST £9.2 million on the value of those shares, HAS copied patients' data, and HAS NOT terminated its contract with #Sensyne...

2) @nhsswft (South Warwickshire Foundation Trust) received £5 million in @SensyneHealth shares, in a deal cut in 2018:
sensynehealth.com/newsroom/sensy…
The Trust HAS NOT said how much value it lost; it HAS copied #identifiable* patient data; and it HAS NOT terminated its contract...

Hmm. Are you 100% certain about that, Dom? @NHSEngland's #PrivacyNotice for the #COVID19DataStore clearly states otherwise 👇

The #dashboards may(?) only show aggregate numbers, but those numbers were generated from individual-level data...

Indeed, it says the strategic dashboard "will display ... record level pseudonymised data” and (as a data expert) you will of course know that #pseudonymised data is #personal data…

...and has been *in law*, as well as in practice, since at least May 2018.
@ICOnews published some helpful (draft) guidance just last month that can point you in the right direction if there's any confusion:

So let's unpack this.
We hear a lot about "#dashboards"; we were even promised sight of one, back in March* - though we've not seen it yet.
But what are they, in reality?

Well, for starters, we know quite a bit about @NHSEngland's 'dashboard(s)': back in March, @MattHancock gave it powers to DEMAND confidential patient information from care providers*, for (broadly defined) "#COVID19 purposes"...

...and we know @NHSEngland's hoovering up *at least* 70 different datasets into its #DataStore (the list at data.england.nhs.uk/covid-19/ is no longer comprehensive due to the controversial contents of some of the datasets).

In permitting this 'passing off', NHSE/I/X shows it hasn't a clue, nor the commercial expertise at the Centre, to be trusted with its OWN name - much less ours!

Sorry, @MattHancock, "...the sheer quantity of #information and #transparency we're putting in the public domain"??! [time code 1:37]

...much of the meaningful detail of what's going on; @NHSEngland's supposed "Single Point of Contact" and "transparent" IG & oversight processes are nowhere to be seen, while tens of millions of #NHS patients' data has been processed for MONTHS; we still haven't seen hide nor...
...hair of the public #dashboard your @NHSX leadership team promised in *March*; and @NHSEngland/X's current '#PrivacyNotice' to patients, being neither #fair nor #transparent, is #unlawful.
Stop waffling! Be #transparent (and lawful!) or the #trust you need will simply vanish
