    Description

    This report is written evidence compiled by the National Data Guardian (NDG) and submitted to the UK Parliament’s Science and Technology Committee in February 2022 for consideration as part of its inquiry: The right to privacy: digital data. This evidence was also published by the committee on its website.

    This response does not address all areas set out for exploration in the inquiry, only those that fall under the NDG’s remit. This inquiry asked about sharing data across a wide range of different organisations such as ‘government departments, other public bodies, research institutions and commercial organisations’. Other questions asked about sharing within discrete contexts such as ‘health and care contexts’. Given the NDG’s remit, this response only addresses the sharing of health and adult social care information.

    Statistician’s Comment

    This publication shows that expenditure across civil legal aid has increased year on year and has also increased more over the recent quarters. Criminal legal aid expenditure in the most recent quarter is compared to a period covering the impact of strike action last year in the Crown Court, which in turn reduced workload completed and the associated expenditure, which means that many of the large increases are not indicative of underlying trends in the system.

    In the last few quarters, we have seen increases in police station claims and a corresponding increase in representation orders at the magistrates’ court. Expenditure in the police station increased in the quarter again, as expected, due to higher fees for police station advice that were introduced at the end of September 2022. Crown Court workload completions are showing a return to more serious types of claim with trials increasing showing impacts of increased resourcing in the criminal courts.

    Overall civil expenditure is increasing which is driven by increases in family law expenditure with the number of claims being paid outside of the fixed fee scheme increasing due to more time being taken during the court process. Other non-family workload has not recovered to the same extent, and this is driven by a slow recovery of housing work although again in the last quarter this has increased. Overall civil legal aid workload still remains below pre-pandemic levels although trends are increasing in domestic violence, immigration and mental health.

    For the first time figures are included covering the recently introduced Housing Loss Prevention Advice Service and breakdowns of these numbers are available in the https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/65153d216dfda600148e3751/legal-aid-statistics-main-data-apr-jun-2023.csv" class="govuk-link">underlying data accompanying this report

    Description

    This data layer indicates the catchments containing principal salmon rivers and principal sea trout rivers. It does not indicate all catchments where rivers have salmon and sea trout presence, only the principal rivers their catchments.This dataset has been recreated from a joint Cefas, Environment Agency, and National Resources Wales publication (2022) on the Assessment of Salmon Stocks and Fisheries in England and Wales in 2021, available here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/assessment-of-salmon-stocks-and-fisheries-in-england-and-wales-in-2021. This dataset was recreated based on Figure 1 using original data from the Environment Agency collected in 2021.This dataset is intended for visualisation only and should not be used for statutory purposes or connectivity modelling.Why is it important that NE publishes this data?This data needs to be available to beaver stakeholder groups, as well as the general public more broadly to ensure transparency when externally publishing the Beaver Impact Assessment Toolkit which includes this layer. The Beaver Impact Assessment Toolkit is directly supporting beaver wild releases across England following the change in legislation and Defra policy announcement on 28th February 2025 enabling the wild release of beavers in England with a licence from Natural England.LineageData used to generate the catchments indicated within this dataset has been derived from the Environment Agency dataset Water Framework Directive (WFD) River Water Body Catchments Cycle 3 Classification 2019 (Simplified), available from: https://www.data.gov.uk/dataset/c257ecf6-ec15-4d5c-8f68-53e2164ee1e5/water-framework-directive-wfd-river-water-body-catchments-cycle-3-classification-2019-simplifie. The details on principal salmonid catchments has been provided by the expertise of Environment Agency colleagues at the lower resolution catchment scale to remove the need to provide sensitive species records locations and has been confirmed suitable resolution for external sharing by Environment Agency experts. This dataset has been created from published and quality assured datasets and has been internally quality assured, it conforms to data and gemini metadata standards.AttributesColumn HeadingFull NameFormatDescriptionNameCatchment NameTextName of the catchment in EnglandStatusStatus of catchmentTextStatus of catchment containing Principal Salmon Rivers (PSR) or Principal Sea Trout Rivers (PSTR)Full metadata can be viewed in environment.data.gov.uk.
