Activities
Main EU Legislative Proposals: Working with our members, the Digital Policy Alliance (EURIM)
• Examines the digital policy scenarios for the UK after it leaves the EU, the EU legislative frameworks that it may wish to retain and its future engagement with EU policy making and compliance activities.
● Develops proposals for policy, legislation and standards in Europe and the UK, reflecting the need for digital policies to transcend national, regional, organisational and sectoral boundaries. Considers the international dimension of legislation and standards.
● Scrutinises upcoming EU and UK policy, directives and regulations through a technology lens to alert policy makers in both Brussels and the UK to the nature of any unintended consequences arising for the digital and ICT sectors.
● Produces policy overviews and position papers on technology related policy for the Westminster and Brussels communities.
● Works closely in specialist groups with its industry members to provide a neutral, balanced and diverse meeting point to identify the consequences to citizens and business of the use of technologies and to inform policy – typically in advance of these issues reaching mainstream debate. Where we can achieve consensus we work to help secure priority for action. If there is no consensus, the reasons are explained and we outline the complexities and differing viewpoints under discussion.
● Facilitates members' recognition and understanding of the issues involved, and the inter‐play between sources of evidence and opinion, policy priorities, intentions and deliberations, and the regulatory agenda. The policies or positions supported by the Digital Policy Alliance are arrived at through a process of balanced and detailed deliberation supported by the considered outputs of our specialist Working Groups and guided by our members' priorities.
Communication Activities: The broad digital economy. We examine Commission strategy proposals and specific legislation. In response to the priorities identified by members, we establish specialist working groups to examine and report on specific legislative and non legislative initiatives.
