Regulatory update - June 2020

Welcome to the June edition of our monthly Regulatory Update, which aims to pull together key developments from the past month across the various UK regulators – and help you to navigate the regulatory maze.

Now that we have all adapted to the ‘new normal’ and the impact of the COVID-19 crisis, so to have the UK’s regulators. The FCA, CMA and ICO have published their annual business plans and priorities taking the implications of the pandemic into account. The ICO has published guidance on use of video technology which has become the backbone of corporate communication. While HMRC has introduced temporary changes to customs authorisations.

I hope you enjoy reading this latest update. Please do not hesitate to contact me, or your normal RPC contact, if you would like to discuss any of the topics highlighted or have any suggestions for areas you would like to see in future updates.
