   (30a)The simplification of the Union’s digital acquis, including of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, should not be a one-off exercise but a continuous task. This Regulation and the parallel proposal amending Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (Digital Omnibus on AI) constitute only first steps towards a simpler, innovation-friendly regulatory framework. In line with the Union’s targets of reducing administrative costs by at least 25 %, and by at least 35 % for SMEs, the Commission should continuously monitor the administrative burden arising from the digital acquis, in particular for SMEs and small mid-cap companies. As a next step, the Commission should present a broader and more comprehensive digital simplification package, covering the whole digital acquis.

   (30a)Processing of personal data may be necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller, including where such processing is carried out by a Member State in relation to military, defence or national security purposes, as referred to in Article 4(2) and 47 of the Treaty on European Union. In accordance with Article 4(2) TEU national security remains the sole responsibility of each Member State. This Regulation should therefore not affect the ability of Member States to carry out processing operations that are necessary for the safeguarding of such essential Member State functions.

3. 266 +Addition Verena MertensEPP · ITRE–LIBE “When applying Union rules on artificial intelligence to competent authorities for the prevention, investigation, detection or prosecution of criminal…” numbered 30a

   (30a)When applying Union rules on artificial intelligence to competent authorities for the prevention, investigation, detection or prosecution of criminal offences, unnecessary duplication of legal and administrative obligations should be avoided. Such authorities already operate within the comprehensive safeguards established by Directive (EU) 2016/680 and national constitutional oversight mechanisms. Regulatory requirements should therefore remain proportionate and should not create overlapping compliance structures which reduce operational capacities without providing an equivalent increase in the protection of fundamental rights.
