Data Protection Bill 2017
The Data Protection Bill will update data protection laws for the digital age and was introduced to the House of Lords on 13 September 2017
Digital technology has transformed almost every aspect of our lives since the last Data Protection Act was passed.
The Data Protection Bill will:
- Make our data protection laws fit for the digital age in which an ever increasing amount of data is being processed.
- Empower people to take control of their data.
- Support UK businesses and organisations through the change.
- Ensure that the UK is prepared for the future after we have left the EU.
