Commission wants to standardize GDPR procedural rights

EU Justice Commissioner Didier Reynders wants to improve enforcement of the General Data Protection Regulation across Europe by means of a small reform. At the heart of the project are rules for the parties involved in the procedure, cooperation between the data protection supervisory authorities and the introduction of fixed deadlines. Even the question of when a deadline begins and what constitutes a working day is addressed in a separate article. In addition, a procedure for the peaceful resolution of disputes is to be introduced, whereby the original complainant would have to object within one month and can also challenge the discontinuation of the procedure in court.
