Coming Webinar - Last Thursday the scary sounding Cyberspace Administration of China released its draft “Regulations on Standard Contract for Cross-border Transmission of Personal Information” – this addresses one of the main concerns of Western business in relation to data – how can we transfer China sourced personal data offshore? Well wonder no more! We are holding a free webinar this Friday to discuss the new draft and next steps – I will be joined by people who actually understand the topic. Hope to see you there!

Great article! It would be interesting to estimate the total costs of cutting out China of the supply chains. Not only for UK/NHS - but for the EU and our overall level of welfare. Perhaps it would be wise to make a back-of-the-envelope calculation before any future boycott is considered... And then we should also keep in mind that alternative sourcing markets such as Bangladesh and India have their own challenges in regards to workers rights, etc.
Agree to your point "China is a dependable supplier that has increased access to quality products for a better price to average consumers." Looking forward to your next article.
