Law Enforcement Data Processing and Part 3 of the DPA 2018 - Act Now

Speaker: Scott Sammons

Part 3 of the Data Protection Act 2018 implements the EU Law Enforcement Directive which regulates the processing of personal data for the purposes of criminal investigations, criminal penalties and public security.

Part 3 does not just apply to law enforcement agencies but also to regulatory bodies as well as local authorities, government departments and courts.

This one-day workshop will explain all the key provisions of Part 3 as well as the similarities and differences with the UK GDPR. It is ideal for data protection officers and information governance professionals requiring a better understanding of Part 3 of the DPA and how it overlaps with the UK GDPR.

By the end of this workshop, you will understand when Part 3 of the DPA applies (Law Enforcement processing) as opposed to the UK GDPR, the requirements of Part 3, the similarities and differences between Part 3 and the UK GDPR, how to handle an SAR under Part 3 and the practical steps to implement and manage Part 3 compliance.
