EU privacy watchdog calls for pragmatism in wording of data protection reforms

The European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) has made recommendations which would streamline many of the draft provisions being considered by EU law makers as they negotiate a new General Data Protection Regulation. Among the recommendations are proposals to simplify planned new rules on data protection impact assessments and the reporting of data breaches to regulators and affected consumers. EDPS Giovanni Buttarelli said provisions should only be written into new data protection legislation if “genuinely necessary”. Guidance from data protection authorities could provide the detail on how the laws should be interpreted in practice, he said.
