EDPS publishes Opinion on proposal to modernise Eurojust
The European Data Protection Supervisor has issued a formal opinion on the European Commission's proposal to update the regulation governing Eurojust, the EU's judicial cooperation agency for serious cross-border crime.
Why this matters: Eurojust handles some of the most sensitive criminal justice data in Europe — suspects, victims, witnesses, cross-border investigations. When its legal framework gets modernized, the data protection rules built into it matter. The EDPS opinion is a signal of where the watchdog thinks the proposal falls short or needs tightening. If those concerns are ignored during negotiations, the gaps end up baked into law. That affects anyone whose data flows through EU law enforcement cooperation.
