The EU member states have voted unanimously for the draft Commission Implementing Decisions on the adequate protection of personal data by the United Kingdom pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and pursuant to Directive (EU) 2016/680. This grants adequacy to the UK's data protection regime, allowing the transfer of personal data from EU organisations to UK organisations. Still, the decision is to be confirmed by the European Commission and there is an ongoing review of the UK's data protection regime, allowing for a possible change of the adequacy decision if the national regulation is relaxed following Brexit.
