Call for public consultation: Strategy to strengthen EU Data Protection rules

On 4 November 2011, the European Commission has issued its call for public consultation in relation to its data protection rules. The call is retrievable HERE. Deadline for interested stakeholders to submit their views is on 15 January 2011. I will submit my proposal (for consideration) individually and also as a collective proposal under the banner of the Data Protection & Open Society Project's Oxford Centre for Socio-Legal Studies. On 2 December 2010, a total of 6 researchers brainstormed to reach certain consensus. Overall, the solicited views have been taken into account and the draft would be expected to be ready by end of December 2010 or early January 2011. Updates will follow suit when the time comes.
