Ombudsman: EU database on fraud suspects breaches rights (euobserver, link): "The European Commission's management of a database containing the names of companies or people deemed to pose a threat to the financial interests of the European Union is trampling basic rights, according to the EU ombudsman. Anyone found on the Early Warning System (EWS) - as it is called - risks having their EU contracts blocked or suspended."
