Based on the Competence Group, members are given the opportunity to actively participate in legislation at the German federal and state level, as well as the EU level, and thus to participate in the development of legal policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Law and Regulations Competence Group, various points of contact arose in the political and regulatory arena during the 2024 reporting year. The work of the Competence Group was conducted exclusively virtually in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The coordination of the European election agenda and numerous statements and position papers determined the work of the Competence Group in 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gb24.eco.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/06\/2025_7-4.001.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3823\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gb24.eco.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/06\/2025_7-4.001.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/gb24.eco.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/06\/2025_7-4.001-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/gb24.eco.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/06\/2025_7-4.001-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/gb24.eco.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/06\/2025_7-4.001-50x50.jpeg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>Key focus areas at the European level included the evaluation of the General Data Protection Regulation and the AI Regulation. The white paper \u201cHow can the demand for digital infrastructure in Europe be met?\u201d was another key topic of discussion for the Competence Group. The renewed discussion about handling so-called General Purpose AI was also addressed. Finally, the EU Commission\u2019s legislative package for the protection against child sexual abuse material (CSAM Regulation and CSAM Directive) represented another focus of the Competence Group\u2019s work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the national level, the NIS2 Implementation and the Cybersecurity Strengthening Act, the Digital Services Act, as well as various discussions on the topic of energy efficiency in data centres determined the work of the Competence Group. The association also monitored the Mobility Data Act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The debriefing marked the rollout of a new service for the Competence Group, providing eco members with a compact overview of central challenges from selected completed legislative processes, giving them guidance on necessary operational adjustments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gb24.eco.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/06\/2025_7-4.002.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3821\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gb24.eco.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/06\/2025_7-4.002.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/gb24.eco.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/06\/2025_7-4.002-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/gb24.eco.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/06\/2025_7-4.002-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/gb24.eco.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/06\/2025_7-4.002-50x50.jpeg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Law &amp; Regulations Competence Group The Law and Regulations Competence Group is the central platform for discussion and information among eco member companies on legal and political issues.
