RSN Official Response to the House of Lords COVID-19 Committee

Thank you to the many members that responded to our recent survey which helped inform a call for evidence by the House of Lords COVID-19 Committee

The Committee is to hold an initial inquiry into how the rapidly increasing reliance on digital technology, accelerated by the pandemic, may have a long-term impact on our social and economic wellbeing. The Committee will initially frame its work around the impact of digitalisation on four key drivers of wellbeing:

  • physical health;
  • mental health;
  • social interaction; and
  • quality of working life.

The deadline for contributions to the House of Lords COVID-19 Committee was on Friday last week.
