Thanks Amanda. It’s encouraging to see articles on the Right to be Forgotten appearing in UK publications. For the past decade, Professor Mark Lawlor and Françoise Meunier have been leading this effort across Europe.
Momentum is already building for the UK to follow suit, following the positive response from an All-Party Group Forum, which I was glad to contribute to, held last month in Goverment Buildings, in Stormont.
While opposition from the ABI (and others) is expected, they may feel compelled to align with the movement. The reality is that UK insurers largely rely on the same reinsurers as those in France, Italy, and Ireland. Collectively, these three countries generate around 50% more in premiums than the UK, making it clear that change is inevitable.
