The PDPC has issued a public consultation on the proposed data portability and data innovation provisions, which will be open from 22 May to 3 July 2019. The proposed data portability provision will provide individuals with greater control over their personal data and enable greater access to more data by organisations to facilitate data flows and increase innovation, while the proposed data innovation provision makes it clear that organisations can use data for appropriate business purposes without individuals’ consent.
