REU, Alm.del - 2017-18 - Bilag 241: Invitation til interparlamentarisk møde om Implementering af databeskyttelsespakken - på tærsklen til dens anvendelse i Europa-Parlamentet i Bruxelles den 15. maj 2018

Background Information

On 27 April 2016, the European Parliament and the Council adopted Regulation (EU)

2016/679 (General Data Protection Regulation) and Directive (EU) 2016/680 (Data

Protection Directive for law enforcement purposes).

These two instruments have achieved a major breakthrough of the European data

protection legal framework in order to establish a modern, robust and consistent legal

framework. The new data protection package bring this legal framework into line with

the Lisbon Treaty and modernise it to take account of IT developments, the explosion on

new technologies and globalisation and challenges posed by terrorism and crime. The

new Union data protection laws establish a modern, strong and consistent legislative

framework across Union policies, which strengthen the protection of the individuals’ right

to personal data protection, reflecting the nature of data protection as a fundamental right

in the European Union.

On one side, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) sets a single set of rules for a

uniform application of the rules for all citizens and businesses, leading to a harmonised

level playing field and uniform protection of individuals and on the other side, the “law

enforcement Directive” establishes a harmonised framework for the processing of

personal data for law enforcement activities, both domestic level or in case of exchanges

between the law enforcement authorities of the Member States replacing the different

legal regimes existing before the Lisbon Treaty. Processing of personal data for purposes

other than law enforcement is subject to the GDPR.

These instruments shall be applicable as of 25 May 2018, after a two years period given

to the Member States to implement these instruments into national law and adapt their

national legislation to the new legal framework.

The Inter-parliamentary Committee Meeting intends to take stock of views of national

parliaments and stakeholders on different issues posed by the new data protection

framework at the eve of its application.

National Parliaments are being deeply involved over these two years in the adoption of

the national legislation implementing the data protection package. Because of their

crucial role in this process, they are in a unique position to share their views and

experience on the implementation of the data protection package.

The meeting is structured around four main sessions addressing them, namely, the

institutional aspects, the impact on the private sector, including SMEs; technological

innovation and the impact of the GDPR and last, the implementation of the “law

enforcement Directive”.
