PCPD 2005-2006 Annual Report

Data Protection Officers' Club (DPOC)

The Data Protection Officers' Club (DPOC) continued to provide a critical two-way communication platform on compliancy practice between the PCPD and public and private sector organizations. The DPOC was established in 2000 with the primary aim of providing a channel for two-way communications between the PCPD and data protection officers across a broad range of organizations. It has since grown to a membership of 237 data protection officers from a range of commercial and professional backgrounds.

In May 2005, leading privacy scholar, Professor Colin Bennett, of the University of Victoria, Canada, delivered a talk on the globalization of personal data privacy protection to DPOC members. Members were also updated on prevailing policy instruments used for data protection across the globe.

As in previous years, a series of data protection workshops were conducted from September to October 2005 exclusively for members. Members took the opportunity to learn the application of data protection principles in the context of human resource management and monitoring at work and received certificates upon completion of the courses.

In January 2006, a meeting was held on the protection of personal data in relation to property management. Adopting an innovative interactive framework, PCPD staff acted some common cases on stage so as to encourage members expressing their views in a more relaxed atmosphere.
