An update to the UK Parliament's House of Commons Library reveals that the Data Protection and Digital Information (No.2) Bill (DPDIB) will return to Parliament for its remaining stages on 29 November, having been carried over to the 2023-24 session. The Parliamentary Bills page indicates that the DPDIB's passage has reached the Report stage.
In response, the Open Rights Group has published a briefing paper explaining how the DPDIB weakens data rights, lowers scrutiny and accountability, unduly expands Government powers and harms the UK economy and relations with the EU.
