LNB NEWS: Government announces new UK Version of GDPR

The Technology Secretary, Michelle Donelan, introduced the Data Protection and Digital Information Bill on 8 March 2023. 

Lexis®Library update: Donelan affirmed that British businesses will save billions of pounds through a new version of a UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that will remove barriers to international trade and reduce repetitive data collection pop-ups online. The new data law is also said to protect UK businesses from costly compliance fees.

The changes are expected to save the UK economy over £4bn over the next decade and maintain the UK's renowned data protection standards.
