Digitization Ministry: we do not interfere the competence of UODO

Ministry of Digitization simply reacted to “a huge number of absurd interpretations of GDPR, which appeared in circulation,” Maciej Kawecki, director of the Data Management Department at the Digitization Ministry, said in response to accusations that it as interfering with the work of the Office for Personal Data Protection (UODO).
“We have a huge problem with the fact that GDPR provisions are considered to be so comical that they have become the subject of ridicule ... This is a terrible situation, because the security of our data, especially today, with the economy more and more based on data, is absolutely essential,” he added.
Lately, UODO asked the Ministry of Digitization to refrain from usurping its competences or presenting its interpretation of personal data regulations without the office’s permission.
