EU Council - EU law to speed-up handling of cross-border data protection complaints
The Council adopted new rules to improve cooperation between national data protection bodies when they enforce the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in order to speed up the process of handling cross-border data protection complaints.
The measures adopted will streamline administrative procedures relating to, for instance, the rights of complainants or the admissibility of cases, and thus make enforcement of the GDPR in cross-border cases more efficient.
The regulation will enter into force 20 days after its publication in the Official Journal of the EU. It will become applicable 15 months after its entry into force
