Explain in brief the enforcement of Data Protection.
SOLUTION:
Basic Principles of Design Rights:
  • If the Information Commissioner finds that the DPA has been breached by a DC, he serves an enforcement notice on DC.
  • The notice identifies the breach or commission, and specifies how to correct it.
  • Failure to comply is an offence.
  • However, a DC may appeal it the DP tribunal.
  • With the approval of the director of Public Prosecutions, legal proceedings may follow, which could result is a fine.

Enforcement Data Protection Act In Media:
  • The DPA has special provision for journalism, and artistic or literary purposes.
  • Basically, journalists may hold personal data for journalistic purposes only if the data are necessary to reconcile the rights to privacy with the rules governing freedom of expression.
  • So, investigable journalists & political satirists or commentators are not treated as Data Controllers.
  • Enforcement Data protection in internet.
  • The UK/EU legislation seems fairly strong. But can trans-border transfer of data.
