However, this extract will not be takenuntil the NHSD have changed the way it will take the data and respect the patient s choice for using their data. NHSD are introducing the following changes to the opt out processwhich will mean thatpatients will be able to change their opt-out status at any time::-Patients do not need to register a Type 1 opt-out by 1st Septemberto ensure their GP data will not be uploaded.NHS Digital will create the technical means to allowGP data that has previously been uploaded to the system viathe GPDPR collection tobe deleted when someone registers a Type 1 opt-out.The plan to retire Type 1 opt-outswill be deferred for at least 12 months while we get the new arrangements up and running and will not be implemented without consultation with the RCGP, the BMA and the National Data Guardian.This means that you can opt out at any time in the future and NHSD will delete data that they already have taken for research purposes, the deadline of the 01/09/2020 has been delayed until a new system of opt out is developed.
