General Scheme of the Digital Services Bill 2023: Discussion

Ms Sabha Greene:

Yes. The criteria are set out in the scheme. A person gets his or her certification and goes on a list, and that list is then available to the platforms so they know who has the status. A person applies to his or her local digital services co-ordinator. There will, therefore, be trusted flaggers in all 27 member states. The out-of-court dispute settlement bodies then are like existing alternative dispute resolution bodies. We expect it will be the same people who apply for this status and the criteria are very similar. There are already regulations for certifying alternative disputes.
