The Data Act passed the committee @EP_Industry! After months of negotiating, this is a strong result 💪
The Act defines who has access to & can share data of connected devices.
I am fighting for an unequivocally clear regulation to allow companies to understand it w/o lawyer /1

If everyone understands their sharing rights, non-personal data markets can evolve and boost Europes innovation power.
Especially for owners of connected devices there is currently often no access & a lack of clarity on sharing rights /2

Next: vote in plenary in March & trilogues (negotiations w countries) after.
I will fight to make the law even clearer. Unclarity helps only the one with the biggest pockets for law firms & lawyers.
Data markets need users to be able to share data that leaves their device /f

Parliament’s text is much clearer than the proposal, many of my amendments have been taken up:
🟢 Distinguishing manufacturer & operator & their obligations
🟠 Defining data in scope
🟢 Defining everyone’s sharing rights
For data, sadly there are still to many grey areas /3
