The Blue Paper on Data Protection: Data Transfer Between the European Union and Third Countries by Guido Reinke is the first publication to provide robust legal options for data professionals and policy options for law-makers concerning data transfers between the EU and a post-Brexit UK. Written for industry professionals, political practitioners (including civil servants), academic scholars, and all who need more insight into how Brexit will likely change the UK’s data protection framework. The author provides practical guidance that can finesse an emotional debate. The assessments it provides range across such essential matters as partial versus full adequacy decisions; Standard Contractual Clauses; Binding Corporate Rules; Approved Codes of Conduct; data protection certifications, marks and seals; derogations; and a transitional versus an “ambitious” EU-UK data protection agreement. The options are ranked by practicability for businesses, and there is a discussion of possible changes caused by a diverging UK legal framework.
