The Preparatory Office of the PDPC Established
After half a year of preparation, the Preparatory Office of the PDPC was established on 5 December 2023. In addition to completing the enactment of the organic statute and officially establishing the PDPC by August 2025, the Preparatory Office’s tasks include initiating the Phase 2 amendments of the PDPA. According to the Director of the Preparatory Office, the amended PDPA will establish a monitoring mechanism for government agencies’ processing of personal data in the future. Meanwhile, a comprehensive review of the PDPA will be conducted, including the statutory bases for collecting personal data (such as establishing a mechanism for data subjects to grant their consent), data subject rights while using IT systems, and so on.
