The Personal Information Protection Commission announced an investigation reform on October 2. Cases involving at least one million people have a 12-month target; general and minor cases have six- and three-month targets.
Different targets for different cases
The reform aims to make investigations into personal-data leaks and infringements faster and more specialised. The commission plans to introduce the measures in stages, using the 12-, six- and three-month framework according to the case category.
Not a compensation deadline
These are case-handling targets, not promised dates for victim compensation or a guaranteed end date for every investigation. This article checks an October 2 announcement on October 3; it is not a newly announced measure today. Refer to the commission’s notice for the scope and implementation details.
