LEGAL COMMUNITY

Finding an appropriate regulatory balance between privacy and innovation, private and public enforcement of consumer and other policies is important for a competitive market for consumers. 

Through our Legal Community, BRC Retail and Associate Members engage with officials and agencies such as Competition and Markets Authority and Information Commissioner’s Office responsible for legislative/policy proposals on data protection, consumer protection, enforcement, competition, ecommerce, internet of things and more. 

For examples of recent policy wins on behalf of members from this and other communities, check out our Member Value Statement.

There are no formal working groups but we do have dedicated meetings on data protection; consumer protection; competition; enforcement; and regulatory approaches.
