Key Takeaways No compelling case for NPDA: The revised report does not make enough of a compelling case that the state needs to be involved in Non Personal Data sharing, or that a Non Personal Data Authority needs to be created. Local governments in better place to address data needs: Local or subnational governments may be in a better position to take advantage of private companies’ Non Personal Data, for instance by entering into MOUs or paying a mutually acceptable fee. Conflicts with other bodies: An NPD authority may conflict with other institutions, such as the forthcoming Data Protection Authority (DPA) of India or the Competition Commission of India (CCI), and will need to be in constant deliberations with such organisations to succeed in its goals.
