Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to discuss the issue that the UK does not have any privacy law. This paper will focus on the issue of the impact of the conventional law on the human rights of UK privacy law. In this paper the privacy law of different countries have been discussed and the comparison have been made between the UK law and the privacy law of other countries. This paper also discuss different cases related to the UK privacy law. This paper also discuss the issue that the European Convention on Human Rights has been integrated into UK household law. It devotes numerous privileges to patients inside the National Health Service (NHS). This item discovers the notion of patients' right to privacy. It focuses that privacy is a rudimentary human right, and that its esteem by wellbeing professionals is crucial for a personal, mental, emotional and religious well-being. I contend that wellbeing professionals can violate patients' privacy in a kind of ways. For example: the right to relish their property; the right to defend their health and individual data as confidential; the right to anticipate remedy with dignity throughout intimate care; and the right to command their individual space and territory. Some initial clues shows that numerous wellbeing care practitioners, encompassing doctors, are presently ignorant of the items of the Convention and the significances of the Human Rights Act 1998. In alignment to avert litigation for breaks of patients' privacy, it is supported that universities and other informative organisations, the Government and NHS trusts should assist to make a clear informative scheme and protocols in order that scholars and practitioners are well acquainted in this field. Although 41 European nations are presently the signatories of the European Convention on Human Rights, encompassing the UK, it is significant to tension that the values considered in this item are applicable world-wide.
