| European commission reforms data protection The European Parliament and the Council have agreed on laws to sort out data projection rights across the EU. The Reform package will put an end to the patchwork of data protection rules that currently exists in the EU. Andrus Ansip, Vice-President for the Digital Single Market, said: “Today’s agreement is a major step towards a Digital Single Market. It will remove barriers and unlock opportunities.” He said that privacy and data protection should not hold back economic activities, but should be seen as an essential competitive advantage. The EU’s next step is now to remove “unjustified barriers” which limit cross-border data flow. This is when local practice and sometimes national law, limits storage and processing of certain data outside national territory. Věra Jourová, Commissioner for Justice, Consumers and Gender Equality said the new pan-European rules are good for citizens and good for businesses. http://www.techeye.net/news/european...ata-protection |
