Taking stock of the latest developments concerning EPPO and Eurojust, it will be discussed their impact on the related data protection framework. It will also be considered the EDPS’ role as a supervisory authority and the ways to improve cooperation and compliance between the various organisations.
The conference is also an opportunity to continue the reflections started during the EDPS Conference 2022 – The future of data protection: Effective enforcement in the digital world. Participants will debate on how to ensure effective enforcement of data protection rules in the area of criminal law both at European and at national levels.
The three topics that will be covered during the conference are:
- the recent changes in Eurojust’s legislative framework and their impact on the way the agency processes personal data;
- a review of the first year of EPPO’s operations, in particular, the challenges and opportunities related to its heterogenic structure;
- the potential improvements in the governance model to make supervision more effective and better coordinated at European and national level.
