Section 186A Protection of data subject’s rights: further provision

F1This section is about the relationship between—

The relationship is not changed by section 5(A1) of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (removal of the principle of supremacy of EU law) (or the repeal of section 5(1) to (3) of that Act).

Subsection (1) of section 186 does not apply to the relationship so far as there is a contrary intention, whether express or implied (taking account of, among other things, subsection (2) of this section).

Nothing is to be implied about a relationship described in subsection (1) merely due to the fact that express provision stating that section 186(1) applies (or with similar effect) is made in connection with one such relationship but not another.

In this section, “pre-commencement enactment” means an enactment so far as passed or made before F220th August 2025, other than an enactment contained in, or made under, a provision listed in section 186(2) or (3).
