Briefing note supporting the presentation of Peter Hustinx at the Working Seminar on the Proposal for a Directive concerning the processing of personal data and the protection of privacy in the electronic communications sector, European Parliament 10 January 2001
This document of the Working Party aims at offering an integrated EU approach regarding the issue of on-line data protection. The word "integrated" underlines the fact that this analysis mainly departs from the texts of both the general data protection directive (Directive 95/46/EC) and the privacy and telecommunications directive (Directive 97/66/EC) but also takes into account and brings together all opinions and documents adopted by the Working Party up to now on certain critical issues which are related to this issue.
