EU: European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS): Priorities 2016: Completing the Data Protection Framework

08 January 2016

Support our work: become a Friend of Statewatch from as little as £1/€1 per month.

"The EU-US transatlantic dialogue, and in particular the need for a legal framework ensuring transborder flows of data in the "post-Safe Harbour" context, will be one of the main focus of the EDPS. Following the CJEU judgment in Schrems and the ensuing Commission Communication, the EDPS intends to provide comments on a Commission Implementing Decision for a new arrangement for transatlantic data transfers. We will also take position on proposals to be tabled by the Commission regarding a Commission Implementing Decision to replace Article 3 (on the limitation of powers of the DPA) of all existing adequacy decisions."
