A note for all club committee members, especially membership secretaries.
GDPR – General Data Protection Regulation happens in May 2018.
This replaces the Data Protection Act from 25th May 2018.
GDPR appears to be concerned with any 'collections' of club members data (Name, Address, Telephone, etc.) and the member's permission for the purposes of which that data will be used for.
It may not affect your club, but check it out.
I may be opening a can of worms here.
If so, I apologise, but best to be safe than sorry and get fined for non-compliance.

Alan – Many thanks for identifying this change in requirement. As far as I am concerned to have a club you require members and those members will need to supply data i.e. name, address etc. Therefore all m b clubs need to review the new requirements and act accordingly. I have just written a draft policy document for my club for which I am the secretary.
