Again, I very much see my role in supporting the commissioner and her team and ensuring they have the resources to carry out the work they do. The conversation I had recently with the commissioner around this very clearly shows that the commission is operating within the data protection legislation, that is, the Data Protection Act, which was passed in 2018. Obviously, that is what we would expect from an independent Data Protection Commission.
