One more week to respond to Digital Services Act consultation
The public consultation on the EU Digital Services Act package is open until 8 September.
Launching the consultation earlier this year, the European Commission said:
The Commission has announced a Digital Services Act package. The Commission is initiating an open public consultation as part of its evidence-gathering exercise, in order to identify issues that may require intervention at the EU level. This consultation covers in addition a series of topics related to the environment of digital services and online platforms, which will be further analysed in view of possible upcoming initiatives should the issues identified require a regulatory intervention.
More information is available here and the questionnaire can be accessed here.
The questionnaire is broad in scope and is designed to gather evidence from a side range of stakeholders. It has six modules:
- How to effectively keep users safer online?
- Reviewing the liability regime of digital services acting as intermediaries?
- What issues derive from the gatekeeper power of digital platforms?
- Other emerging issues and opportunities, including online advertising and smart contracts
- How to address challenges around the situation of self-employed individuals offering services through online platforms?
- What governance for reinforcing the Single Market for digital services?
MARQUES encourages any readers who are engaged in this area to consider responding to the questionnaire by the deadline.
