New powers to fine organisations up to £500,000 for serious data protection breaches are expected to come into force on 6 April 2010.

The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has launched a consultation proposing that the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) be given the power to impose civil monetary penalties—known as fines to everyone else—of up to £500,000. It is worth repeating just to make clear what we are talking about here: the ICO may get the power to issue fines of up to half a million pounds, without having to go to court.

Standards provider, BSI, has produced an online tool to help organisations manage personal information without breaching data protection laws.
