GDPR enforcement
The GDPR was meant to harmonise the EU's data protection regime but there is a considerable difference across the EU in terms of approach, not to mention resources and workloads. And what about the UK, now sitting outside the GDPR and no longer subject to the cooperation and consistency mechanism – is the approach different under the UK GDPR and how likely is it to evolve further? We look at the approaches of the Irish, French, Spanish, German and UK data protection regulators, and at the role of the EDPB in enforcing data privacy law.

MoreData sharing
Data exports continue to be high on the agenda but data sharing (of personal and non-personal data) is being looked at much more widely by the EU and the UK in the context of providing individuals with control over their data, opening up the potential of big data, and breaking down barriers to competition. We look at incoming EU legislation relating to data sharing with particular focus on the draft Data Act, as well as at the ICO's Code of Practice on Data Sharing, Privacy Shield 2.0 and data sharing requirements for the UK's Pensions Dashboard.
MoreHealth data – getting the right balance between innovation and data protection
Personal health data attracts special protection but also benefits from exemptions under UK and EU data protection law. Have legislators and regulators got the balance between innovation and privacy right or do the rules overly restrict advances in healthcare provision and research?
