Implications European Commission’s proposal for general data protection regulation for business

Implications of the European Commission’s proposal for a general data protection regulation for business, Final report to the Information Commissioner’s Office. May 14, 2013

  • “An independent survey commissioned by the Information Commissioner’s Office has found a clear lack of understanding across business around the proposed EU data reforms. That uncertainty extends to businesses’ estimated cost expenditure on meeting their data protection responsibilities under the new law, bringing into question the data on costs found in existing evidence, for instance figures produced by the European Commission and Ministry of Justice. The findings are published…in a report by London Economics. It was commissioned by the ICO to better understand the challenges the planned reforms would place on UK businesses, and included a survey of 506 businesses.”
