A new EU data protection framework, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), was adopted on 8 April 2016 and takes effect from 25 May 2018.

The GDPR builds on the concepts and principles in the current Data Protection Act (DPA).  There are however some significant enhancements and new elements, the most important of which are summarised below.

The Government has confirmed that the UK’s decision to leave the EU will not affect the commencement of the GDPR.  Affected organisations therefore need to act now to ensure they are compliant by May 2018.

Given the breadth and complexity of the GDPR this article is intended to act as an introduction only, and not as guidance.
