The co-head of Bird & Bird’s international Privacy and Data Protection practice, Ruth Boardman, has contributed to a new UK government report about data transfers.
“Towards a sustainable, multilateral, and universal solution for international data transfers” was prepared by the International Data Transfers Expert Council, of which partner Ruth Boardman is a member.
The report provides expert analysis of the challenges to a sustainable and scalable approach to international data transfers and proposed solutions.
It contains the council’s independent recommendations to the UK government and the international community to facilitate multilateral solutions for sustainable and scalable international data transfers.
The report also encourages a call to action globally to start a constructive conversation and lay foundations for a future global framework for trusted and responsible flows of personal data that benefits everyone.
This report, its findings, and recommendations, are based on the council’s research and work programme since its inception in January 2022.
