Pensions Pod: Cyber and AI Bytes - Implications of the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 for pension schemes

In this episode of The Pensions Pod: Cyber and AI Bytes, Samantha Howell and Amanda Leiu discuss the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 (DUAA) and its implications for pension schemes. They explore key changes in data protection requirements, particularly focusing on data subject complaints, compliance challenges, and practical steps for trustees to ensure adherence to the new regulations. The conversation emphasises the importance of understanding the Act's provisions and adapting existing processes to meet the new standards. A key implication of the Act in a pensions context is on Complaints processes, with knock-on effects for schemes’ Internal Dispute Resolution Procedures (IDRPs).
