D7.4 - Legal sustainability recommendations
Introduction
The objective of D7.4 is to provide recommendations on how to ensure the sustainability of DE4A outputs from a legal perspective.
To the extent that DE4A builds on the SDGR, this will entail an explanation of the governance and sustainability mechanisms foreseen in the SDGR and its IR, and an explanation of how DE4A outputs fit in.
However, there are a number of topics (identified below) for which the outputs don’t fit neatly or perfectly into the SDGR/IR context. To add value to the deliverable, we will try to provide suggestions on how these can be sustained as well – within the SDGR, within other legislation (eIDAS 2, Data Governance Act, Data Act), or via new initiatives.
Topics to be examined
The topics should be developed by the consortium as a whole. This wiki page is intended to capture suggestions, proposals and requirements/expectations from the consortium, which will then be iteratively developed by the WP7 (legal) team for the final deliverable.
Topics should be finalized in January, so that the deliverable can be submitted in March, as foreseen.
| Topic | Why is there a need for legal sustainability measures? |
| Subscription and notification | Needs to be clear how these can be organized – how they can be built on the basis of the SDGR, or how they can be created independently from it (and in the latter case, whether the technical system can be used for it) |
| Mobile wallets | Is within the scope of eIDAS2 of course; needs to be clear how wallets fit into the SDGR once-only logic. Or alternatively, if it doesn’t fit in there, how wallets can/should be supported in eGov transactions |
| VCs | eIDAS 2 partially covers this via attribute assertions, but the SGDR really has no framework for it. |
| Fine grained powers / powers catalogue | Not really clear yet how this can be fit into the eIDAS 2 discussions – likely linked to SEMPER take-up, but also needs very extensive discussion on actual needs and semantics. |
| Representation in general (e.g. parent-child, guardianship, etc) | Comparable to the above, but not covered by SEMPER. To be discussed on whether/how/when a model can be established. VCs could be a viable tool |
| eDelivery | TBD |
| Links to Data Act and Data Governance Act - Single information points | TBD |
Potential approaches to ensure legal sustainability
Will be different per topic, but options will include:
· Changes in SDGR, IR, guidance on interpretation/implementation via the defined governance mechanisms of the SGDR and IR
· Or eIDAS 2
· Or DGA/Data Act
· Or new initiative altogether – SDGR 2?
