The Chamber's new EU Data Protection Task Force met for the first time this week to consider industry responses to the new EU Data Protection Directive.
The initial meeting featured a discussion with Department of Commerce
General Counsel Cameron Kerry, who indicated the department will be
fully engaged with the EU as well as in other multi-lateral forums to
help create a system of data protection and data privacy rules that
enhance international interoperability of cross-border data flows.
Chamber members agreed it will also be important to present a united
voice from the business community as businesses of all sizes, from the
biggest multinationals to small exporters, can facilitate the
cross-border flow of data to grow their business and create jobs.
The
Chamber task force aims to ensure a system of continuous stakeholder
input and U.S-EU cooperation to craft a balanced and efficient data
protection and data privacy regime that continues to provide the
benefits to business.
