To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment he has made of the accuracy of facial recognition in CCTV.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment he has made of the accuracy of facial recognition in CCTV.
Facial recognition is a fast evolving area of technology with the potential to streamline identity verification and authentication processes across Government and the private sector.
Its performance is dependent on a number of variables, from the quality of the images, environmental factors, the specific algorithm used, the thresholds or risk profile applied and many other factors. Possible matches produced by LFR systems are always checked by a human operator before deciding what, if any, action to take.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment he has made of the effect of routine wiping of CCTV footage at banks and building society premises on the police's ability to investigate (a) bank fraud and (b) identity theft.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment he has made of the effect of routine wiping of CCTV footage at banks and building society premises on the police's ability to investigate (a) bank fraud and (b) identity theft.
No assessment has been made. However, the Government is working to reduce the number of victims of fraud through the Joint Fraud Taskforce. This includes delivery of the Banking Protocol which has prevented over £16m from falling into fraudsters’ hands and led to over 150 arrests, and launching a banking Code of Practice that sets consistent standards and best practice for banks to identify and support victims of fraud and financial abuse.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he will require banks and building societies to retain CCTV footage at their premises for a fixed period of time in order for it to be available for the investigation of bank and identity fraud.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he will require banks and building societies to retain CCTV footage at their premises for a fixed period of time in order for it to be available for the investigation of bank and identity fraud.
The retention of CCTV footage is covered by data protection legislation and the Information Commissioner’s Data Protection Code of Practice for surveillance cameras, and by the Surveillance Camera Code, issued under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012.
The latter is voluntary for banks and building societies but adherence to it is encouraged. Both of these codes do not prescribe specific minimum or maximum retention periods, but require a proportionate approach allowing images and other information to be retained for as long as is necessary to serve the purposes of the system in question but no longer.

The role of the Surveillance Camera Commissioner is to encourage compliance with the surveillance camera code of practice. The code provides guidance on the appropriate and effective use of surveillance camera systems by relevant authorities (as defined by section 33 of the Protection of Freedoms 2012 Act). These relevant authorities include police forces and the National Crime Agency. Other operators and users of surveillance camera systems in England and Wales are encouraged to adopt the code voluntarily.
The code also sets out guiding principles that should apply to all surveillance camera systems in public places. One of these principles is that systems are capable of providing good quality images and other information which are fit for purpose.
In addition, as part of the CJS efficiency programme ‘ClickShare’ technology has been rolled out across criminal courts in England and Wales. ClickShare equipment and software can be used to present evidence in court such as CCTV footage.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the effectiveness of current legislation regulating the use of CCTV cameras with facial recognition and biometric tracking capabilities.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the effectiveness of current legislation regulating the use of CCTV cameras with facial recognition and biometric tracking capabilities.
There is no legislation regulating the use of CCTV cameras with facial recognition and biometric tracking capabilities. However, the Surveillance Camera Code of Practice requires any police use of facial recognition or other biometric characteristic recognition systems to be clearly justified and proportionate in meeting the stated purpose. The retention of facial images by the police is governed by data protection legislation and by Authorised Professional Practice produced by the College of Policing.
