Sicherheit und Zugangskontrolle

Opinion of 25 March 2009 on the notification for prior checking concerning "the processing of requests for waiver of immunity from legal proceedings and of the inviolability of Commission premises and archives" (Case 2008-645)

The European Commission has entrusted the Investigation and Disciplinary Office of the Commission (IDOC) with the processing of data for the purpose of deciding, in response to a request from a national court or any other national body entitled to carry out an investigation, whether to authorise or refuse to authorise the appearance in court of an official or other servant and/or access to the premises and/or archives of the European Commission.

The EDPS recommends in particular that appropriate retention periods be established for files relating to requests for waiver of immunity in the light of developments, taking into account any discontinuation of disciplinary and/or dispute procedures or the data subject's acquittal in court.  As regards transfer of data to recipients other than Community institutions, the nature of the data exchanged requires that a list of such transfers be drawn up and the legal justification for them indicated.
