Weekly Update 3 December 2021

Dear Friends,

This week the Bingham Centre published a set of papers from our year-long research project on data-driven responses to public health emergencies. In a week where the Omicron variant of Coronavirus has dominated news headlines, we summarise the main findings of this project.

This Update also brings news of our current work on scrutiny of UK COVID-19 legislation, and a publication on the regulation of artificial intelligence and automated decision-making in the UK. We report on the latest activities of the Modern Slavery and Human Rights Policy and Evidence Centre, which is led by the Bingham Centre.

Our upcoming December events include panel discussions of the Future of the Rule of Law and Democracy, and the Role of Consumers in Addressing Modern Slavery. Details of these events are found at the end of this email.
