Abstract :
[en] In April 2018, the European Commission presented
a legislative package intended to enable, foster and
formalise cross-border access by national judicial
authorities to electronic evidence controlled by private
service providers.1 In particular the public-private
character of the ‘cooperation’ envisaged in the
proposed set-up raises several questions at the interface
of criminal procedure and data protection law.
This report provides a brief overview of the proposed
EUlegislation and an introduction to themost
salient attendant legal and policy-related issues.
