Context

The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) has laid the International data transfer agreement (IDTA), the International data transfer addendum to the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses (Addendum) and a document setting out transitional provisions as to the use of the current standard data protection clauses for international transfers before Parliament.

Key points to note

  • The documents are issued under Section 119A of Data Protection Act 2018.
  • This final step follows the consultation the ICO ran in 2021.
  • The IDTA, Addendum and transitional provisions will now lay before Parliament until they come into force on 21 March 2022.
