General Data Protection (GDPR)

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a new EU regulation that comes into force on 25 May 2018. The GDPR will, along with a new Data Protection Act (currently in draft), replace existing data protection legislation including the UK Data Protection Act 1998.

The GDPR applies to all individuals and organisations with day-to-day responsibilities for data protection. It therefore applies to GP practices, as ‘data controllers’, and their clinicians and administrative staff.

This page will be updated once the Data Protection Act 2018 comes into effect.
