The European Parliament and the Council of the European Union agreed on 15 December 2015 a 'strong compromise' on how to ensure a high level of data protection across the European Union. The parliament's support of the two draft laws in the package - a regulation and a directive - was expected to be confirmed by the EP Civil Liberties Committee on 17 December 2015. The proposal still needed the formal support from the Council before it could be adopted. On 18 December 2015, the Permanent Representatives Committee (Coreper) of the Council confirmed the compromise texts agreed with the European Parliament on data protection reform. The agreement was in line with the request from the European Council for negotiations on data protection reform to be concluded by the end of 2015. |
