UK’s post-Brexit data deals ‘will go further than EU ever could’
The UK government has outlined an ambitious plan to reach a set of international agreements on data that it claims is now possible due to leaving the European Union.
With Brexit on the horizon, the government has set out a four-pillared strategy for global digital trade, with the cornerstone a set of free trade agreements that allow the freeflow of data and data localisation between the UK and Asia-Pacific countries.
However, these ambitions have been outlined despite no guarantees the UK will continue to enjoy the freeflow of data with EU nations, as it currently does, with the prospect of a no-deal Brexit still very much in play.
