Proximity, Amicable Settlements, and how the EU Guts GDPR Enforcement

Research output: Contribution to specialist/vulgarizing publicationBlogResearch

Abstract

The European Union (EU) legislator is working on a new Regulation to modify the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The reform’s main aim is to strengthen the GDPR’s enforcement by further harmonising the procedures related to “cross-border” personal data processing. One crucial element here is that this harmonisation will affect the handling in Ireland of massive amounts of complaints submitted against “big tech” from individuals all over Europe. The European Commission published a legislative proposal in July 2023, the European Parliament adopted its position after the first reading in April 2024, and the Council agreed on its general approach on 13 June 2024.
