Ashington Town Council is one of the largest town councils in Northumberland, with 18 elected Councillors across six wards, a budget exceeding £1.2 million, and a small but dedicated team delivering real impact for the communities of Ashington. We are ambitious for our town and we are looking for an exceptional officer to join us as Deputy Town Clerk.
The General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") took effect in the UK from 25 May 2018. It replaced the existing law on data protection (the Data Protection Act 1988) and gives individuals more rights and protection regarding how their personal data is used by councils. Local Council's must comply with its requirements, just like any other organisation.
GDPR applies to all local councils as public authorities.
