GDPR enforcement held back by lack of resources

Enforcement of EU data privacy rules is being stifled by a lack of resources across national authorities, according to a new study published on 25 May, on the second anniversary of the EU’s landmark general data protection regulation (GDPR).

The report, published by the advocacy group Access Now, finds that due to a significant disparity in the funding of national data protection authorities, larger firms could try and use their economic wherewithal to potentially circumvent privacy provisions laid out in the GDPR.
