Шаблон:Infobox UK legislationThe Data Protection and Digital Information Bill is a proposed Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom introduced by the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, Michelle Donelan, on 8 March 2023 in the 2022-23 Session and carried over to the 2023-24 Session.

The legislation proposes to rip up EU derived data protection law and to make a new UK regime of data protection law.

The Bill will establish the Information Commission and transfer the Information Commissioner's functions to the commission. It also mandates the removal of cookie pop ups and bans nuisance calls with the power for increased fines.[1] The Bill further regulates digital verification services, and requires the Secretary of State to keep a register of the services.[2] The Bill further creates smart data schemes.

The Bill passed the House of Commons on 29 November 2023 and was introduced to the House of Lords by the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Artificial Intelligence and Intellectual Property, Viscount Camrose, on 6 December 2023.

Certain parts of the Bill have been the subject of controversy, in particular including the power of the Secretary of State to force banks to monitor benefits claimants bank accounts, which the Government has said is to root out benefit fraud.[3][4]
