| Brexit planning will not stop implementation of EU’s GDPR |
|
There’s nothing like a new year to focus the mind on self-improvement. And from a data protection perspective, there’s something about the arrival of 2017 that makes the implementation of General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in May 2018 seem so much closer. The ICO have published an update setting out what guidance organisations can expect. It’s essential reading, as it will help you plan what areas to address across the next 12 months. Just before Christmas the Article 29 Working Party also published guidelines on: * the role of the Data Protection Officer * the new right of data portability and * how to identify an organisation’s main establishment and lead supervisory authority They are open to comment until the end of January 2017. They have added links to the guidelines into the Overview and they are considering what, if any, key messages they need to draw out & explain in more detail. |
