On December 15, 2015, the EU Parliament and the Council agreed to terms on the EU Data Protection
reform. This reform consists of two instruments: the General Data
Protection Regulation ("GDPR") to "enable people to
better control their data" and the Data Protection Directive
for "the police and criminal justice sector." The
Commission also published questions and answers on December 21, 2015, to
highlight the key changes instituted by the reform. For further
discussion on the GDPR, see the
Jones Day Alert.
