As well as Seeds podcast www.theseeds.nz I work as a lawyer helping purpose driven organisations and so try to put out helpful content that may educate and this episode is one of those – all about Incorporated Societies and what is changing for them.  This was hosted by Volunteering New Zealand and Hui E! Community Aotearoa and I spoke at this webinar that about 300 signed up for, alongside the following amazing contributors with different perspectives:   - Katie Bruce of Hui E! Community Aotearoa  - Michelle Kitney of Volunteering New Zealand | Tūao Aotearoa,  - Alex Stainer and Michelle Lombaard from the External Reporting Board  - Jay Casey from Inland Revenue NZ  Content for incorporated societies mentioned is over here: https://www.parryfield.com/home/blogs/resources-for-the-incorporated-societies-act-2022/  Thanks Michelle and Katie for hosting! Description of the session: “Big changes have come into effect for Incorporated Societies and mean you have to take action by April 2026 to continue operating as an Incorporated Society. You will need to re-register by April 2026 and comply with new financial reporting requirements. There is a lot of information out there, and many of you will already have begun the re-registration process. We also know that it can be tricky to know what you need to do and when, and if this even applies to you. Hui E! and Volunteering New Zealand are bringing those in the know to you at this webinar to answer your questions. Katie and Michelle will be joined by Steven Moe (partner at Parry Field lawyers and 20 years experience in this area), XRB (the Crown Entity that set the financial reporting standards) and IRD. Come along if you are in a leadership or governance role in an Incorporated Society, or if you just want to find out more." For more content visit www.theseeds.nz

How serious is coronavirus for the survival for the performing arts long term? As a government inquiry begins this week, it’s expected that the performing arts that serve an audience in a confined space, such as theatre, music and dance, will take the longest to return to normal, and even then some of the damage may be irreversible. Caroline Norbury, chief executive of the Creative Industries Federation, Deborah Annetts, chief executive of the Incorporated Society of Musicians and Julian Bird, chief executive of UK Theatre and the Society of London Theatre, discuss the ramifications of the current crisis on the performing arts. The Night Watch is arguably Rembrandt’s most famous painting. The imposing canvas from 1642, is housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and has been undergoing a major restoration since July last year, but work is currently on hold because of the lockdown. The museum recently posted online a ‘hyper-resolution’ photograph of the masterpiece, allowing the viewer unprecedented access to the painting’s finest details. Historian Simon Schama discusses what the image reveals about the painting and the artist. Presenter: John Wilson Producer: Hannah Robins

Arts education has become the focus of a great deal of passion and concern recently, since the core, knowledge-based subjects took precedence over the creative subjects when the EBacc was introduced in England by the then Education Minister Michael Gove, announced in 2010.With the arts not being a requirement in the GCSE syllabus for the English Baccalaureate (the EBacc), leaders in the arts and the lucrative creative industries have been very vocal in their criticism of government policy.Stig Abell chairs a discussion on the subject from a state secondary school - Soar Valley College in Leicester - with leading figures in arts and education.On the panel are:Bob and Roberta Smith, contemporary artist and education advocate Deborah Annetts, Chief Executive of the Incorporated Society of Musicians (the ISM)Trina Haldar, graduate in chemistry and engineering, and director and founder of Leicester-based Mashi Theatre Branwen Jeffreys, BBC's Education EditorMark Lehain, founder (and former headteacher) of one of the first secondary Free Schools.

Are you ready for the changes to data protection law. We thought it was high time for a GDPR update. Rosemary Smith, from Opt-4 joined us around a year ago, and her podcast on GDPR, or the General Data Protection Regulations, really engaged our listeners. She's still our top download. It's a very hot topic (you can listen again here). Time for a GDPR update So, we thought it would be great to have Rosemary back to give us a GDPR update and to motivate those business owners who have yet to get going. Rosemary is a leading expert on GDPR. Rosemary Smith gives us a GDPR update There has been a major uptick in activity with GDPR. Since we last spoke, the UK Government has confirmed, despite Brexit, that GDPR will be coming in on 25 May 2018. On Christmas Day this year, it will be exactly 6 months till GDPR! Rosemary has been involved with the Information Commissioner's Office, as there is as yet NO official guidance as to how we should be interpreting some of the key aspects of GDPR. We did have some draft guidance from the ICO on consent. https://ico.org.uk/about-the-ico/consultations/gdpr-consent-guidance/ This is causing consternation as the barrier for consent is MUCH HIGHER than it currently is under the DP Act. The draft guidance had no surprises. Consent needed to be unambiguous and confirmed by a statement or clear affirmative action. In essence, is affirms opt-in consent. No pre-ticked boxes. Some fairly tough words around 3rd parties use of data. So, that is not the data collecting business itself but any other organisation to which you might want to pass data. The guidance is very clear in that you need to NAME all of those 3rd parties at the point at which you collect the information. Is this punitive compared to how things are now? Industry sectors like insurance, financial services, etc is typical now. But that looks unlikely to be part of the new regime. They have dismissed ‘defined sectors'. But they haven't published final guidance, and they won't be doing so until the ICO has final guidance from Europe on consent. Article 29 Working Party – all the regulators around EU getting together and agreeing a position. https://edps.europa.eu/press-publications/press-news/blog/crucial-moment-communications-privacy_en It is likely to be December 2017 before we get final guidance. If the outcome is purely opt-in, then the eco-system around prospecting to individuals in the UK via direct mail, for example, would be affected by the reduction in the availability of permission based lists. That is one of the reasons that Royal Mail and others, including Rosemary Smith, engaged with the ICO to discuss the alternative to consent. Balance of Interest or Legitimate Interest This is in the current law, but will have more emphasis in GDPR. It is where an organisation asserts that it has a legitimate interest to process the individual's data. That it is necessary to process it. And crucially, that they can process that data without harming the rights of the individual. It is a balancing test. To date there has been no guidance from the ICO on this. So, Rosemary's Data Protection Network https://www.dpnetwork.org.uk an online community that advises and helps people to unpick this legislation. Their Governance Board decided it would be a good idea to get industry representatives together, supported by the Direct Marketing Association, and the Incorporated Society of British Advertisers. They unpicked where it could and could not be used. They sent that draft to the ICO and provided comment. It was published in July. https://www.dpnetwork.org.uk/dpn-legitimate-interests-guidance/ What are the situations where Legitimate Interests are going to be relied upon? i.e. Employees. Consent has to be freely given. In a firm, the staff really have no choice other than for their data to be processed by their employer. Especially if they want to be paid!
