We need an independent regulator to ensure strong protections and get redress when things go wrong.
But the Data Protection and Digital Information Bill (UK) weakens the role of the Information Commissioner's Office. That’s why we've presented amendments.
The #DPDIBill (UK) gives the Information Commissioner's Office discretion to dismiss complaints unless you’ve first contacted the organisation that holds your data.
This will worsen their already poor track record of enforcement.
✅ ORG’s amendment removes this discretion from the Bill.
