Health Committee backs legal changes to secure health data

The Standing Committee on Health and Care Services recommends the Storting approve amendments to health legislation. The proposal would allow restrictions on sharing large health datasets when disclosure could threaten society's fundamental values and functions or endanger lives and health, and introduces stricter information security requirements for processing personal data. The committee notes concerns from consultation participants that these restrictions could hinder medical research and innovation.
