U.K. Information Commissioner Elizabeth Denham announced a draft journalism code of practice featuring guidance on data protection practices for media outlets and their staff. Denham said the code will bring members of the press up to speed on what's required of them under the U.K. General Data Protection Regulation, noting the code aims to "strike the right balance between journalism, freedom of expression and data protection." The code will be up for public consultation through Jan. 10, 2022.
