It highlighted the need for stronger legislation to enable confidential information exchange and improve GDPR enforcement. The Board also announced workshops and joint operations to boost cross‑border enforcement.

Why it matters: A legal framework for cross‑regulatory information sharing would enhance GDPR enforcement consistency and efficiency across the EU.
