Half of UK data protection fines still unpaid
More than half of data protection fines issued by the Information Commissioner’s Office over the last two years, totalling more than £5m, have not been paid.
Of the 47 fines issued by the ICO since January 2020, 27 – 57 per cent – have not been paid off. These add up to £5.1m owed to the government’s treasury (the ICO doesn’t receive the proceeds of its fines.)
