minister Sarah Jones
A 10-week consultation is being launched that will ask for views on how the technology should be regulated and how to protect people’s privacy.
The Government is also proposing to create a regulator to oversee police use of facial recognition, biometrics and other tools, and is collecting opinions on what powers it should have.
