Do they still need to go to individual Departments? It is data-sharing but is there a suggestion that there will be a central database to which the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport will have access to parts and the Department of Health to other parts, for example? Are we still talking about 20 different databases with my address in each? If one is updated, are those responsible for the other 19 supposed to check whether information has been changed so they may update theirs? What will be the actual impact?
