In this episode of InfoSec Insider – Talk DP, Stuart Skelly, Senior Data Protection Consultant at URM, provides his insights on the Data (Use and Access) Act, which received Royal Assent on 19 June.  Stuart draws upon over 25 years of specialisation in data protection law to discuss:

  • The background, scope, and intention of the DUA Act
  • How the DUA Act is expected to impact the UK’s data protection regulatory landscape, and how it may lighten the compliance burden on organisations, particularly in relation to:
    • Automated decision-making
    • International transfers of personal data
    • Data subject access requests (DSARs)
    • The Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR)
    • The ‘legitimate interests’ basis for processing
    • Which provisions in the Act may make data protection compliance more difficult
    • When these changes are likely to come into force.
