Minister, will the government be engaging with the not-for-profit and charitable sector, who are very concerned about this maximum penalty being in place? Will you be engaging with the charitable and not-for-profit sector and potentially, as part of that, engaging with them in guidelines for the Information Commissioner about how this new penalty provision will be used? And, are you intending to provide some additional resources for the charitable and not-for-profit sector so that they can effectively meet their privacy obligations, given what may otherwise be a ruinous penalty being delivered to them under this new regime?
