Deal or No Deal - UK Government issues technical notice on data protection

This article analyses the UK Government’s technical notice on a potential no Brexit deal scenario, with a focus on transfers of personal data outside the EEA.

On 13 September, the Government published its technical notice on data privacy if there is no Brexit deal. The provisions of the GDPR that have had the most focus in the context of Brexit are those relating to transfers of personal data outside the EEA. This is the sole topic covered by the Technical Note. Whilst the Technical Note is useful, far more questions are outstanding than are answered.
