EU GDPR – it's not in the 'long grass'


David Smith, Deputy Commissioner and Director of Data Protection  at the UK Office of the Information Commissioner, recently penned a helpful blog post on the current position of the forthcoming EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Whilst it explains why the delay, giving a little more ‘breathing space’ for organisations, some of which msmd advisors is currently supporting,  to get their ‘house in order’, it does also hold out for an early 2016 adoption, and thus organisations will have to be compliant by 2018.
Given that many regulated organisations are foreseeing  a raft of other ‘initiatives’ dropping on them in the next two years, msmd advisors counsel is still to start preparing now.
