Isle of Man introduces new Data Protection Bill
In the Programme for Government, the Council of Ministers committed to ensuring that the Island’s legislative position is equivalent to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) by May 2018.
The Isle of Man Government’s proposed approach is the introduction of a short Data Protection Bill giving specific powers to apply EU data protection instruments as part of Manx law (with any necessary modifications) by Order approved by Tynwald and then implemented with Manx Regulations.
