On 18 June 2024, the Office for Personal Data Protection announced and opened a consultation as part of a national study focusing on the exercise of the right of access to personal data by controllers. The study will be open until 31 July 2024. This study invites administrators to participate in a survey developed within the European Data Protection Board's (EDPB) Coordinated Enforcement Framework (CEF). The survey aims to promote GDPR compliance and disseminate best practices among organisations. This initiative, part of a broader effort involving 31 data protection authorities across the European Economic Area (EEA), seeks to enhance dialogue with administrators and gather insights on the implementation of data access rights, which enable data subjects to check whether their personal data is being processed in compliant fashion. The findings will be analysed by the EDPB, with a report on the outcomes expected to be published following the survey's closure.
