Promoting Compliance [image] Data Protection Officers' Club (DPOC) [image]The PCPD continued to participate in the Data Protection Officers' Club ("the DPOC"), which is in its ninth year of operation. The DPOC provides an opportunity for data protection officers from both the public and private sector to keep up to date about developments in personal data privacy and the application of the Ordinance. The DPOC also acts as a forum where members can share their views and experience. There are currently over 270 DPOC members from various sectors. Members were encouraged to bring along their colleagues or friends to meetings to help grow the DPOC. Some of the DPOC activities organized over the year included: A familiarization visit to Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd was organized on 1 November, 2007. DPOC members learned about the airline's data protection practices and online training module in a presentation by Cathay Pacific Airways staff. Members also toured the Flight Training Centre and the Cabin Crew Safety Training School. The visit was informative and interesting and members could promote personal data protection among staff. [image] On 25 January, 2008, over 80 members attended the DPOC plenary meeting. The theme of the meeting was "The best way of handling data access request". At the meeting, the Commissioner, Mr. Roderick Woo, and PCPD staff spoke about the recently amended Data Access Request Form and discussed cases of data access requests with members. A luncheon was arranged after the meeting where members could share their experiences.
