Article 1 – Subject matter and scope

voluntary registration of data intermediation services;

voluntary registration of entities which collect and process data made available for altruistic purposes;

the establishment of a European Data Innovation Board;

data localisation requirements;

the re-use of certain data and documents held by public sector bodies or by certain public undertakings, and of research data.

Chapter VIIb of this Regulation is without prejudice to laws, regulations, and administrative provisions that relate to the internal organisation of Member States and that allocate, among public authorities and bodies governed by public law, powers and responsibilities for the processing of data without contractual remuneration of private parties, as well as to laws, regulations, and administrative provisions of Member States that provide for the implementation of such powers and responsibilities.

Where sector-specific Union or national law requires public sector bodies, data intermediation services providers or recognised data altruism organisations to comply with specific additional technical, administrative or organisational requirements that relate to Chapters VIIa and VIIb, including through an authorisation or certification regime, those provisions of that sector-specific Union or national law shall also apply. Any such specific additional requirements shall be non-discriminatory, proportionate and objectively justified.

With regards to data and documents in scope of Section II of Chapter VIIc, Chapter VIIc of this Regulation establishes a set of minimum rules governing the re-use and the practical arrangements for facilitating the re-use of data and documents and does not affect the possibility for Member States to adopt more detailed or stricter rules, provided that those rules allow for more extensive re-use of data and documents.

Chapter VIIb applies to any non-personal data;

participants in data spaces.

the making available of data by data holders to public sector bodies, the Commission, the European Central Bank and Union bodies, where there is the need for those data for the performance of a specific task carried out in the public interest;

public sector bodies, the Commission, the European Central Bank and Union bodies that request data holders to make data available where there is the need for those data for the performance of a specific task carried out in the public interest and to the data holders that provide those data in response to such request;

The rules set out in Chapters VIIa and VIIc do not create a legal basis for the processing of personal data.

This Council draft drops the change the Commission proposed. It deletes nothing from the law in force.
