The Court of Justice of the European Union must also respect personal data
In a decision of 1 October 2019 (OJEU L 261/97, 14 Oct. 2019), The Court of Justice of the European Union is establishing an internal control mechanism for the processing of personal data carried out in the context of the Court's judicial functions.
In the course of their work, the European institutions have to process the personal data of citizens with whom they interact.
It is in this context that, being recipients of personal information, it was necessary that the regulation also applies to the processing of personal data in the context of the EU's judicial mission.
Consequently,Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2018 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data by the institutions, bodies, offices and agencies of the Union provides for the alignment of the rules applicable to the European institutions with the RGPD.
In order to make this protection effective, the Court of Justice has decided to establish a two-stage procedure by means of rules of procedure (Rules of Procedure, 1 October 2019 laying down internal rules relating to the limitation of certain rights of data subjects with regard to the processing of personal data in the exercise of the non-judicial functions of the Court of Justice of the European Union):
In a second stage, the decision will be subject to appeal to the Committee.
The Committee shall consist of a chairman and two members chosen from among the Judges and Advocates-General of the Court of Justice and appointed by the Court on a proposal from its President; the Committee shall be assisted by the Legal Adviser for Administrative Affairs of the Court and shall meet when convened by the President.
The claimant will have two months to lodge a complaint, starting from the notification of the decision or the date on which the person became aware of it.
Once the complaint has been deemed admissible, the Committee may decide to hear any person whose testimony it deems useful.
He shall also have the power to annul, reform or conform the decision in question, and shall notify the complainant thereof within four months of the lodging of the complaint.
Finally, the lodging of a judicial appeal against this decision will terminate the Committee's competence.
