The Washington HB1011 is, arguably, and perhaps, a precedent for some. The RFID Journal reports.
In the United States, Nevada, New York, New Hampshire and Virginia are adopting the Washington effort towards a similar motivation. Comparatively, UK and EU RFID Technical guidance via the Information Commissioner's Office and the Article 29 Working Party should relook into some of the provisions in those States. Maybe, UK and EU could learn something from the US. Or, alternatively, inferring to the Canadian approach, may also lead to something insightful.
By and large, personally, I would anticipate that in few years time, a review will take place in the UK and EU on this matter. The latter may also correspond the latest ICO report on "Privacy Dividend". Alas, it's not that too late for recognising RFID as a dividend of the Internet of Things!
