With this in mind, Mazars and McCann FitzGerald have, for the sixth consecutive year and in advance of Data Privacy Day 2022, commissioned research into the ongoing impact of GDPR on businesses and operations in Ireland.
We were delighted to present the findings from our sixth annual GDPR survey earlier today.
Commenting on the report, Consulting Partner, Liam McKenna noted that "Most organisations are now more concerned about GDPR non-compliance than when the regulation was introduced just under four years ago. Many businesses are observing the impact of fines for non-compliance, such as the high-profile penalty levied against WhatsApp by the Data Protection Commission last year, and understand the increasing need to ensure their own compliance. That fewer respondents say they have reported a data breach to the Data Protection Commission this year, with this number falling from 69% to 61% in the last 12 months, gives optimism that businesses are continuing to improve at managing such issues.”
