I will look at both issues and come back on Report Stage. I accept the point the Minister has made regarding data protection but this Bill is about online safety. We are talking about cases where safe information can be provided to people online, yet records are being erased. I ask the Minister to look and see if there are any additional powers that the commission could have in this area to ensure that the law, as set out in the GDPR, is actually applied by the tech companies. The issue is not the law; the issue is how the tech companies are failing to implement the law as has been passed by this Parliament and parliaments right across Europe.
