Use Case "Doing Business in Another Member State" (DBA UC2)
The Use Case "Doing Business in Another Member State" of the Doing Business Abroad Pilot (DBA UC2) uses the Subscription and Notification Pattern.
This use case focusses at assessing the consequence for active eServices in case of a business event, e.g. company goes bankrupt, company stops it’s activities, company merges, etc. The data consumer may subscribe to notifications on selected business events. In case such an event occurs, the data provider notifies the data consumer. The data consumer needs to assess the relevance of the notification. It can then for example request the updated data from the data provider or decide it doesn’t need any additional data. Furthermore, the data consumer may intervene in an active eService (e.g. stop periodical grants or impose a tax obligation). The data consumer may also use the notifications as input to a general fraud prevention and protection procedure.
Legal Consideration
[Starting from exciting national and union law: Looking at this specific use case of DBA, we should have an analysis of applicable law to uncover what is and what is not possible today, given the specific combination of MS that are participating in the exchange. Cooperation between WP4 DBA and WP7. If we are able to get to a preliminary analysis in the next two to three weeks we might include it in the DBA chapter of D2.5. Otherwise it could become a working paper in context of the solution architecture for the new DBA pattern.]
