Folder met alle Europese studies over persoonlijke databescherming

LEAFLET with studies related to Data protection.
Zie eerder IT 869. Data verwerking heeft een behoorlijke evolutie doorstaan. Als antwoord hierop heeft de Europese Commissie voorstellen gedaan om in een modern, consistent en sterk wettelijk raamwerk te voorzien. Het betreft data verwerking processen in de EU door zowel private als publieke instellingen. In deze folder wordt een compilatie van documenten, voorbereid door het Europees Parlement, weergegeven.

Background
Data processing has changed extensively in the last two decades and attitudes towards data privacy have undergone considerable evolution. In response to all these issues, the European Commission proposed a package of proposals in January 2012 - a Regulation and a Directive - to eliminate the current legal fragmentation and provide a modern, consistent and strong legal framework for all data processing activities in the EU for the years to come.

The Regulation lays down the legal framework applicable to data processing activities in the EU, either by private or public entities. The Directive sets out the legal framework applicable to processing activities by law enforcement authorities for law enforcement purposes.  The European Parliament is co-legislator with the Council.

Inside
This leaflet provides extracts from a compilation of papers prepared by the European Parliament’s Policy Departments on “Economic and Scientific Policy” and on “Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs” in relation to broad data protection issues in the EU.
