NHS England Palantir contract extension could result in further legal threats
Campaigners have warned publicly funded healthcare system NHS England that extending its contract with Palantir without meaningful consultation with patients could lead to a challenge in court.its controversial contract with the US spy-tech firm by six months – and £11.5 million in value – the data privacy and legal group Foxglove has said NHS England had not met the terms it agreed in March last year following a legal challenge.
Yet NHS England has awarded the data analytics firm – which started out creating bespoke solutions such as digital-profiling tools for the– a contract extension well beyond the terms initially set out for the system. "You notice they no longer call it the Covid datastore! We're old enough to remember the promises in their original blog – that this unprecedented new pool of health data was an emergency response and would be unwound at the end of the pandemic. It's almost as if the officials seeking to grab data and make it accessible to central government were gaslighting us all along," Crider said.
NHS England has denied it was forced to agree to a public consultation following the threat of judicial review of the COVID-19 data store but has yet to produce evidence in the form of legal correspondence.
