Back in June, the Queen’s Speech announced a new Data Protection Bill for the UK (the “Bill”). The Government has now published a Statement of Intent relating to the Bill, which sheds a bit more light on what the Bill will cover. Geldards Lawgives a summary
Once the UK leaves the EU, there will be a vacuum in UK data protection law – unless the Government does something to fill it. One of the main purposes of the Bill, therefore, is to ensure that the rights, obligations, powers and other requirements set out in the GDPR will continue to be part of UK law post Brexit.
