On 23 February 2022, the European Commission adopted a Proposal for a Regulation on harmonised rules on fair access to and use of data ("Data Act"), as part of its set of measures related to the European Data Strategy.
As a key pillar of the European Data Strategy, this act aims at contributing to the creation of a cross-sectoral governance for data access. The Commission is hence willing to foster access to and use of data between various players, notably by way of protecting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
The proposed EU Data Act was open for feedback by stakeholders until 13 May 2022.
