The European Commission's data protection reform proposals were backed today by an overwhelming majority in the Committee for Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE) of the European Parliament. The reports of MEPs Jan-Philipp Albrecht and Dimitrios Droutsas, on which members of the LIBE Committee voted today, are a strong endorsement of the Commission's package approach to the data protection reform, and an important signal of progress in the legislative procedure.
