The Data Protection Act 1998 (DPA) came into force on 1 March 2000, repealing the Data Protection Act 1984. It sets rules for processing personal information and applies to some paper records as well as those held on computers.
The DPA derives from the EU Directive 95/46/EC which requires "Member States to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of natural persons in particular their right to privacy with respect to the processing of personal data."
