<p>The Data Protection Bill, which recently received its second reading, will create
a modern legal framework for the UK, suitable for the digital age, incorporating the
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The Bill allows the processing of sensitive
and criminal conviction data in the absence of consent where justification exists,
for example bodies responsible for the fight against doping in sport. We are working
to ensure there are no unintended consequences contained in the Data Protection Bill
which hamper the effective governance of sports by national governing bodies of sport
and other relevant sports bodies.</p>
