German Presidency first draft paper on e-privacy
The German Presidency of the Council of the European Union published a discussion paper regarding upcoming work on a potential ePrivacy Regulation. The presidency said it would like to work toward “reaching a general approach and/or a mandate to start negotiations with the European Parliament” during the Working Party on Telecommunications and Information Society meeting July 13. The paper also indicates that settling on core provisions of the proposal, particularly the processing of electronic communications data, is a precondition to any agreement.
