"The fundamental principles of the Data Protection Directive remain valid, despite being more than 15 years old, because they enshrine two key aspects of European integration: the protection of people’s fundamental rights and freedoms, and the realisation of the internal market and the free movement of personal data. They need to be revised in order to respond to the new challenges faced by personal data protection as a result of globalisation and technological change, in particular, encouraging the collection, analysis, exchange and misuse of data, and the risk of profiling. The implementation of this directive and its application has been approached differently in each Member State, while each national control authority has been given a different status, and different resources and powers.
It is crucial to equip the EU with a comprehensive, coherent, modern, high-level framework that is able to protect effectively individuals’ fundamental rights, in particular, the right to privacy, inside and outside the EU, and to guarantee greater legal certainty and a level playing field for economic operators, to increase public confidence and to boost the digital Single Market. I am voting for the initiative and await the Commission’s tabling of the necessary legislative initiatives on the basis of the additional means provided for in the Treaty of Lisbon."@en1
