We have mentioned the UK government’s consultation on changes to the UK GDPR, and I hope your organisation has responded (you can just respond to 1 question if you like).
One proposal is to make Soft Opt In available to charities (and political parties and campaigning organisations) and it’s important that respond, if you agree.
I would encourage you to get your management team or Board to respond by the deadline of 19th November, using this link https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/data-a-new-direction
I understand that the CIoF also has some information on its website for members.
