Send us a text

On 8 March 2023, the UK Government introduced the long awaited update for the UK GDPR, now called the Data Protection and Digital Information Bill, in the House of Commons. According to the press release, British business will be able to save many billions of pounds when this bill becomes law, but not everybody agrees that is true.

In this extra episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal of Outschool talk with Ralph O'Brien, our go-to UK expert and guest co-host, on what the bill entails, and we also hear from Claire Archibald on some of the consequences of the bill.
