The free webinar, on Thursday 6 August, 2pm-4pm, follows our highly-successful webinar on access to justice earlier this month.

As privacy and data protection issues increasingly dominate the headlines, the event will consider the changing landscape of data protection in Ireland and abroad.

Chaired by Andrew McKeown BL, it will hear from:

• Data protection specialist Simon McGarr on the recent Schrems II ruling and its consequences
• Defamation lawyer Paul Tweed, partner at specialist firm Gateley Tweed, on the case for tighter regulation of the social media giants
• Olga Cronin, policy officer with the Irish Council for Civil Liberties, on the data protection record of the Irish government
• One more speaker TBA
