Call for Evidence on the current data protection legislative framework

This Call for Evidence seeks evidence about how the European Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC and the Data Protection Act 1998 are working, and their impact on individuals and organisations. The UK Government has issued the Call for Evidence to help inform the UK’s position on negotiations for a new EU data protection instrument, which are expected to start in early 2011.

Please note that the Call for Evidence is not a formal consultation, but an evidence gathering exercise. Deadline for responses: 6 October 2010.
