- Confirm that data subject request procedures are appropriately implemented and effective
- Review high risk supplier contracts as identified through the Data Protection Impact Assessment process
- Ensure Information Asset Owners are aware of their responsibilities and have relevant business unit procedures aligned to the Group Data Protection Policy.
