Event outline:
Join 5 Essex Chambers’ team of data protection and information law barristers for this webinar where they consider the future of group litigation under the GDPR in England and Wales.
Since the introduction of GDPR six years ago, there have been many attempts to bring group litigation in relation to mass data breaches or wrongful processing. But group litigation under the GDPR in England and Wales has had a rocky path, with a series of judicial decisions placing roadblocks in the way of mass claims. In this breakfast seminar, experts in the field consider:
- whether this is in the public interest
- how those roadblocks might be removed or bypassed
- whether group litigation in this area really is at the end of the road.
