The very worst data breaches, including those involving the unlawful obtaining or disclosure of data, may be subject to criminal prosecution under the Data Protection Act 2018. Investigations into offences committed since the Act came into force in May 2018 have not yet reached the prosecution stage.</p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 27/11/2018 19:17:12 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James
