There is sigificant momentum at the moment to abolish the system of mandatory blanket retention of all communications data: critical comments by the new commissioners early this year, critical constitutional court judgements, the imminent ECJ procedure initiated by Digital Rights Ireland as well as a promising coalition agreement by the new British government.

What would be helpful now, according to all experts, is a joint letter by organisations from all over Europe, calling on the competent commissioners to propose abandoning data retention. Broad pressure on and support of the Commission is needed to trigger such a move. Read more…

The German government is opposing the adoption of a new European Union (EU) anti-discrimination directive. This directive should contribute to end exclusion and discrimination that people suffer because of their age, sexual orientation, religion or disability. The adoption of this new anti-discrimination directive requires the agreement of all 27 EU Member States. Germany should cease its opposition so that discrimination in Europe can be effectively addressed.
