EU: Privacy watchdog warns of "fuzzy" data sharing plans
The European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) has called for better privacy protection in the European Commission's plans for revising a system that enables authorities to share information about the movement of people across the EU.
The EDPS is Peter Hustinx, the person responsible for monitoring the processing of personal data by the Community institutions and bodies. His 26-page opinion on three proposals related to the Second Generation Schengen Information System, known as SIS II, was published today.
Hustinx welcomed some aspects of the proposals, including measures in favour of victims of identity theft and a better definition of the grounds for alerting individuals for the purpose of refusing entry to a country.
