The U.S. Federal Trade Commission's 18 May open meeting agenda features consideration of a policy statement on biometric data collection and a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to amend the Health Breach Notification Rule. The policy statement on biometrics will outline specific practices the commission will further examine under Section 5 of the FTC Act. The potential amendments to the breach notification rule aim to clarify covered entities, increase electronic breach notices and more required disclosures in notices.
