🇪🇺🇬🇧 This week, @EP_Justice MEPs led by Chair @zarzalejosj travel to London to discuss topical themes with UK policymakers (incl. @CommonsSITC, @CommonsCMS, @LordsJHACom, @LordsEUCom & @catkinson80 - @MoJGovUK), @ICOnews, NGOs & experts 👇 europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-… @EPinUK
@TheProgressives Team on the European Health Data Space last trilogue #EHDS
This decision shows a lack of real reform. The EU-US Data Privacy Framework fails to address the problems with transatlantic data transfers and leaves personal data vulnerable to mass surveillance. Again @EUCourtPress will have to act to protect Europeans.
#DataProtection @EU_Commission has adopted an Adequacy Decision for 🇪🇺🇺🇸 Data Privacy Framework (DPF) This concludes that 🇺🇸 ensures an adequate level of protection for #personaldata transferred from 🇪🇺 to companies participating in the 🇪🇺🇺🇸 DPF. ec.europa.eu/commission/pre…
An inevitable final judgement but a reminder of all the rights and privileges that UK nationals have lost because of #Brexit
CJEU, Brexit law New judgment: challenge to EU conclusion of the withdrawal agreement for "removing" EU citizenship from UK nationals dismissed - loss of EU citizenship was due to UK decision to leave the EU, not the withdrawal agreement
Petition: Do not reform UK data protection laws (GDPR) petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6170…
#Trilogue | 🥳We reached a political agreement with @Europarl_EN & @EU_Commission on aligning EU criminal law instruments with new personal data protection rules i.e. aligning EU Investigation Order Directive and FD on Joint Investigation Teams with Law Enforcement Directive. 👏
Timely example of why the UK would do well to keep data protection rights to review automated decisions. #GDPR #AI theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/o…
It is crucial that we treat this scandal with the appropriate level of urgency it deserves. While the technology cannot be rolled back, we can take steps to regulate this surveillance industry & set a global standard/example. #PegasusProject
Happy to contribute to this important and timely @UKTradeBusiness discussion on the issue of UK data adequacy and the dangers of abandoning GDPR protections.
Session two on 'Data Adequacy' is now starting LIVE. youtube.com/watch?v=YNd9J_…
Watch the Data Issues & Trade evidence session on THURSDAY: youtube.com/watch?v=YNd9J_… 10am: 'Digital Trade' - we'll be joined by @EmilyJonesBSG Javier Ruiz Diaz @SabinaCiofu 11am: 'Data Adequacy' - we'll be joined by @Adam_Bowering @nashtonhart @DuncanEMcCann @jimkillock
Delighted to have an article re-published by the @UCL_EI on the @Europarl_EN objection to draft decisions on UK adequacy and what this means for data transfers long-term. ucleuropeblog.com/2021/06/07/dat…
What are the implications for civil liberties and business in the UK after the @Europarl_EN objection to UK data adequacy and the latest judgements on mass surveillance and the immigration exemption? I took a look in my latest piece for @TheRegister. theregister.com/2021/06/03/uk_…
European Parliament's data adequacy objection: Doubts cast on UK's commitment to data protection reg.cx/3ZX0
Schrems II resolution adopted by large majority by @Europarl_EN calling for "meaningful reforms" to US surveillance before adopting adequacy decision & for infringements against Irish DPC for not enforcing #datap europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document…
MEPs call on the European Commission to open an infringement procedure against Ireland for failing to endorse #GDPR. The Irish data protection authority reported about 10,000 complaints last year, but made no formal decision on any of them. ✍️ @BertuzLuca eurac.tv/9T24
📢 @EP_Justice voted (37 for, 30 against, 1 abstention) to adopt a resolution on the adequacy of data protection in the UK 🇬🇧. Next, it will be discussed in the May #Eplenary . Press release coming soon.
And, as pressure grows to improve the deal, @Europarl_EN will continue to be most receptive forum for amending agreement in interests of citizens on both side of the Brexit divide.
TCA was always going to be formally adopted by @Europarl_EN but scrutiny process at least allowed many issues, including those affecting human and citizens' rights, law enforcement and asylum, to be brought to light. ukandeu.ac.uk/scrutiny-of-th…
Very pleased to be re-published by the @LexisNexisUK legal research service: EU ratification enables much needed scrutiny of the Brexit deal lexisnexis.com/uk/lexispsl/pu…
Big day for #data issues in @ep_justice today. I will be speaking in debates with @dreynders on alignment with the Law Enforcement Directive & #UK data transfers this morning, and on the Data Governance Act #DGA this afternoon. Follow 🔴 LIVE 👇 multimedia.europarl.europa.eu/en/committee-o…
