Board Minutes to Discuss UK GDPR Compliance

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE ECONOMIC CRIME & CORPORATE TRANSPARENCY ACT 2023 IS BEING IMPLEMENTED IN PHASES AND MAY CHANGE THIS TEMPLATE. 

These board minutes can be used to record the proceedings at a board meeting convened to consider the requirements of the UK GDPR and approve the policies and procedures the company has put in place to achieve UK GDPR compliance. Directors need to properly understand, prioritise and implement the changes needed to comply with data protection under the UK GDPR regime, and board minutes are a useful way to document this.

Use these minutes to record director approval of UK GDPR compliance measures

These minutes are designed for a private limited company and can be used to document the board’s consideration of UK GDPR requirements and its approval of the company’s UK GDPR policies and procedures.

Why it matters: compliance, liability and directors’ duties

Directors will need to be satisfied that their and the company’s obligations under the UK GDPR have been met, given the potential fines, liability and reputational damage that may result from a failure to comply.

The directors will also need to satisfy themselves that they have met the requirement to promote the success of the company (section 172 Companies Act 2006), in protecting the personal data the company holds and meeting UK GDPR compliance more generally.
