Suppose that you have been asked to conduct an internal investigation into potential wrong-doing within your company. In the process, you will collect evidence and conduct interviews that involve an important amount of personal data, including sensitive data. What steps should you take to prevent the investigation being open to challenge in the future, and how can you ensure that you yourself are not accused of infringing the law?

  


Experienced lawyers Emmanuel Plasschaert and Evelina Roegiers will highlight the legal pitfalls when handling internal investigations (taking into account the laws on antibribery, competition, discrimination, etc.), with a particular focus on the impact of the GDPR.


Language: English

"The Tide is High: New Guidance on Sea-Level Rise," The Bar Association of San Francisco

Jon Welner will be interviewing Larry Goldzband, the Executive Director of the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC), on the Commission’s new plan to prepare the SF Bay Area for sea-level rise. BCDC is the agency responsible for permitting all development on the shoreline of San Francisco Bay. On December 5, 2024, the BCDC adopted the Regional Shoreline Adaptation Plan (RSAP). The RSAP is a region-wide plan for the San Francisco Bay shoreline that guides the creation of coordinated, locally planned sea level rise adaptation actions that work together to achieve a regional One Bay Vision. This includes BCDC’s guidelines for how local governments must meet the requirements of SB 272, a new State mandate that requires all local governments along the shoreline to prepare a Subregional Shoreline Adaptation Plan by 2034.
