Those who fail to restore the road to its previous state are only liable for a fine of up to £2,500. Boys Smith said: “This is clearly monstrously insufficient for the size of the firms involved and is not working.”
I’d bet on a proper fix costing a lot more than the £2,500 fine. More and more, it seems like the authors behind the EU’s GDPR had proper fine structures figured out. Make the fine some percentage of the company’s global annual revenue and suddenly they sit up and listen.
