EDPB calls for legal basis for cross-regulatory information sharing

GRC

Summary: Dublin, 17 July– At a high-level meeting in Dublin on 16 and 17 July 2026, the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) called for a clear legal basis for the sharing of information among regulators with different competences.

Why it matters: This matters if it changes compliance expectations, enforcement posture, or the practical workload for teams that have to translate guidance into controls, evidence, and operating process.

What to watch: Watch for follow-on implementation guidance, regulator clarification, enforcement movement, or changes in how larger organizations operationalize the requirement.
