+## What 
+Until now, form fillers could choose to get an email confirming that their form had been submitted. They could not request a copy of their answers, even though they might want or need this. 
+
+For example, there are forms where users are required to get a copy of their answers as part of the application process - such as when someone needs to forward their responses on to another organisation. Having a copy of their answers also allows form fillers to refer back to what they’ve submitted for future use. 
+
+This new feature lets people request a copy of their answers, which will be included in the optional confirmation email.
+
+In order to make this more secure, form fillers who want a copy of their answers will be asked to first sign into their GOV⁠.⁠UK One Login, or create a new one. We want them to use the email address linked to their GOV.UK One Login to help make sure that answers are not sent to the wrong email address.
+
+Form creators will be able to choose whether or not to enable this feature. 
+
+## Why
+We were aware that form fillers not being able to receive a copy of their answers could be a potential blocker for some forms and processes. 
+A number of organisations, including Companies House and the Insolvency Service, told us that they were interested in this feature and wanted their users to have this option.
+
+We’d previously considered asking form fillers if they wanted a copy of their answers at the point they chose whether to request a confirmation email. But it became clear that there were data security issues with this - for example, people could enter the wrong email address. 
+
+We decided that this feature would therefore need to wait until we’d found a more secure way to send users a copy of their answers. 
+
+The decision to use GOV.UK One Login allowed us to implement this feature. It also supports GDS strategy to integrate GOV.UK Forms with GOV.UK One Login.
