Decision details

The Cabinet had before it a report * of the Group Manager for Performance, Governance and Data Security requesting Members to review the existing policy after the first year since the Data Protection Act  2018 and the GDPR became law.

The Cabinet Member for the Working Environment and Support Services outlined the contents of the report stating that the review had been programmed following the new legislation in 2018 and that no further changes had been identified as being necessary after the first year of operation.

Consideration was given to the impact of Brexit.

RESOLVED that the Data Protection Policy be approved and the next review date set for 3 years hence unless legislation were to change earlier.
