MRS guidance updates
A report on the next instalment of the MRS Essential Safeguards guidance series - Neurodiversity. Neurodivergent is a term that describes people whose brains develop or work differently for some reason. This means the person has different strengths and struggles from people whose brains develop or work more typically. Stigma and a lack of awareness can cause exclusion of people with neurodevelopmental differences. The new guidance aims to help you to understand neurodiversity in the context of your data collection activities, how to improve inclusivity and help foster an environment that is conducive to all.
Domestic and international updates
An update on the latest developments with the Data Protection & Digital Information Bill, AI legislation, the latest news on the use of cookies, new ICO guidance and a review of some of the latest data protection breaches and decisions.
