A huge percentage of the organisations I’ve recently come into contact with have little chance of becoming “GDPR compliant” by May 2018. To be fair, a good proportion of these organisations have spent the past decade or so ignoring the professional advice that's available on how to better comply with the requirements of the existing data protection legislation.

“It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” Shakespeare penned these words as a metaphor for life (Macbeth, Act V, Scene V), but they relate equally well to information governance in that organizations often spend more time arguing over the particulars than actually doing much about them.

Parliamentarians will soon be debating the merits of the Data Protection Bill, and I’m wondering whether much consideration will be given to the implications of the proposal to gift citizens with “free” Subject Access Requests. What parliamentarian might oppose such a measure? After all, what’s not to like about “free” stuff? But hang on a minute. This stuff is not “free”.

Whenever I visit a clinic for a health check, I’m asked a slightly different set of questions. Each clinic is very professionally run, and, until recently I haven’t been unduly concerned that the same questions aren’t always asked. I’ve generally been healthy, so I guess there was never any real need for the medical profession to probe too deeply. So, why should I be worried about different questions being asked about data protection?

On September 14, 2017, the UK Government introduced a new Data Protection Bill (the “Bill”) to Parliament. The Bill is intended to replace the UK’s existing Data Protection Act 1998 and enshrine the EU General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”) into UK law once the UK has left the European Union. The GDPR allows EU Member States to enact, via national law, exemptions from the various provisions of the GDPR, which the Bill also seeks to implement.

Parliamentarians who are tasked with scrutinising the Data Protection Bill have an inenviable job. Can there be a less desirable appointment than siting on a Parliamentary Committee, scrutinising text that many seasoned data protection professionals have thrown their arms up in the air in despair over? Given that the Bill is intended to last a generation, (the current Act will have lasted 20 years by the time of its repeal) , surely we deserve something we can more readily understand.
