Data protection laws in the UK might be facing changes once more, including GDPR being thrown out after only three years. What’s motivating this review, and why may they not be in the best interests of consumers?
The UK Government is currently in the midst of a 10-week consultation on proposed changes to its data protection laws (part of the wider National Data Strategy), aiming to create “an ambitious, pro-growth and innovation-friendly data protection regime that underpins the trustworthy use of data.”
This consultation is the first step in delivering on the new strategy’s second mission to secure a “pro-growth and trusted data regime” that could see the enhanced levels of data sharing during the COVID-19 pandemic become the real “new normal.”
