EU trilogue negotiations on GDPR procedural regulation risk undermining enforcement

The European Commission's draft procedural regulation aimed at harmonising GDPR enforcement is in its final trilogue meeting. The proposal introduces long deadlines and complex steps that could delay cases until around 2029. NGOs warn the draft may violate EU Charter rights and could be challenged through an annulment procedure.

Why it matters: If adopted, the new GDPR procedural rules could significantly slow enforcement and disadvantage data subjects.
