The roulette-style products launched on 1 April by two high-street bookmakers were withdrawn the following day after a warning from the Gambling Commission. The Commission is continuing to investigate the circumstances and the operators could still face regulatory action. The Commission may also investigate key senior staff at bookmakers who are responsible for bringing those products to market.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government and the Gambling Commission expect industry to comply with both the spirit and the letter of the new regulations to ensure that consumers continue to be protected from harm.<\/p>

The number of UK-based registrations of a .eu domain name is reported in the annual accounts of the .eu registry, EURid. As of Q4 2018, there were 241,000 UK registrations of .eu.<\/p>

We take the protection of personal data and the right to privacy extremely seriously. The Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA) made our data protection laws fit for the digital age and empowered people to take control of their data.<\/p>

<\/p>

The DPA and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) introduced a duty on all organisations including social media companies to notify certain types of personal data breaches to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).<\/p>

<\/p>

Under the GDPR, a company may designate one national regulator in the European Union as its \u201clead supervisory authority\u201d, so that it does not have to deal with 28 separate regulators. In the case of Facebook, the Irish Data Protection authority takes that role and is therefore leading on this breach.<\/p>

<\/p>

The ICO is working with its Irish counterpart to ensure that it fulfils its role to protect UK citizens data. This includes establishing the number of UK users affected.<\/p>

The changes to the localness guidance were made by Ofcom, the independent regulator, in line with its requirements under section 314 of the Communications Act 2003 to ensure effective and appropriate localness guidance is in place (as required under the 2003 Act).<\/p>

<\/p>

Ofcom's consultation in 2018 on its proposed changes to the localness guidance and impact assessment covered the potential impacts on radio listeners and the industry.<\/p>
