I thank Ms Sippel for providing that clarification.

Ms Daly said that Spain's legislative framework allows its data protection authority to make decisions but that it probably has less to consider. Would the introduction of two more commissioners in the DPC support the move to defining in the legislation that decisions have to be made because there would be three DPC commissioners working on the cases? Can we solve any of those issues, such as backlogs, how the Data Protection Commission is working and the determination of decisions? Would having three DPC members alleviate that?

I will ask one final question before Ms Daly comes in. Has a review been done at an EU level on GDPR being EU-wide legislation, on what is the preferred legislation across the EU, and on what country is setting an example in this regard? Notwithstanding that each country has a different caseload, and I understand each context will be slightly different, has any country shown a good way to legislate for GDPR?
