    Article 71 Reports

    Justification

    INNOVATION PACKAGE #8: Makes the GDPR’s broad protection more proportionate in practice. It clarifies that principles, guidance, complaints and enforcement must reflect actual risk, legal certainty and the balance required by Recital 4. Supervisory authorities and the EDPB should prioritise serious infringements, coordinate with sectoral regulators, involve stakeholders and avoid guidance that creates new obligations. A Data Protection Data Space improves transparency, evidence-based supervision and consistent application across the Union.
