Where a competent authority finds that a recognised data intermediation services provider or a recognised data altruism organisation does not comply with one or more of the requirements laid down in this Chapter, it shall notify that entity, or its legal representative, of those findings and give it the opportunity to state its views, within 30 days of the receipt of the notification.

The competent authority shall have the power to require the cessation of the non-compliance referred to in paragraph 3 either immediately or within a reasonable time limit and shall take appropriate and proportionate measures with the aim of ensuring compliance.
Article 32g(5)
If a recognised data intermediation services provider or a recognised data altruism organisation does not comply with one or more of the requirements laid down in this Chapter even after having been notified in accordance with paragraph 3, that entity shall:
Article 32g(5)(a)
lose its right to use the label referred to in Article 32a in written and spoken communication;
Article 32g(5)(b)
be removed from the public Union register referred to in Article 32a.

Any decision revoking the right to use the label as referred to in the first subparagraph, point (a), shall be made public by the competent authority and shall be notified to the Commission. The Commission shall remove the entity from the public Union register.
