OBA Child & Youth Law  and Privacy Law PROGRAM | Original Program Date: June 25, 2020

In January 2020, Part X of the Child, Youth and Family Services Act came into force. Entitled “Personal Information”, this Part provides a legislative framework for the collection, use and disclosure of personal information by the Ministry and service providers. Join us to unravel the privacy rights and obligations stemming from this new legislation, and explore what is happening on the ground. Gather valuable insights and helpful best practices as we examine:

• What protections and oversight does Part X provide?
• Best practices for service providers to ensure compliance
• Key challenges and helpful advice for overcoming them
