Taking a wrong turn? Government pursues data protection reform

The Government has today (10 May 2022) announced in the Queen’s Speech that further to its consultation ‘Data: A New Direction’ it will bring forward legislation in this Parliamentary session to reform the UK’s data protection law (the UK GDPR, Data Protection Act 2018 and Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations) which has been adopted virtually wholesale from the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
