The New Data Protection Bill: What it means for DP and the public sector

In March, the UK Department for Science, Information and Technology (DSIT) published the Data Protection and Digital Information (No.2) Bill. The Bill is now going through Parliament. If enacted, it will make changes to the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018 and Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (“PECR”).

Our director, Ibrahim Hasan, recently took part in a webinar organised by eCase. In this 45 minute session Ibrahim, alongside Data Protection experts Jon Baines of Mishcon de Reya and Lynn Wyeth of Leicester City Council, discusses the new Bill including:

  • The key changes
  • The differences with the current regime
  • What the changes mean for the public sector
  • The challenges

The new Bill will be discussed in detail on our forthcoming GDPR Update workshop.
