Despite">https://www.iccl.ie/digital-d... asserting its lead role in 196 EU-wide cases since the GDPR was applied 34 months ago, the DPC has delivered only 4 decisions. https://twitter.com/johnnyryan/status/1372244288990511107?s=20">https://twitter.com/johnnyrya...

2. As I told @DerekinBerlin of @IrishTimes, the DPC is therefore the bottleneck of GDPR enforcement against Google, Facebook, Microsoft, and Apple, everywhere in the EU. https://www.irishtimes.com/business/technology/irish-approach-to-data-protection-kafkaesque-1.4533257">https://www.irishtimes.com/business/...
3. The European Court described the DPC’s failure to act in a major case involving Facebook as “persistent administrative inertia”. https://twitter.com/johnnyryan/status/1349303356058120192?s=20">https://twitter.com/johnnyrya...
4. The European Parliament passed a resolution saying it is “particularly concerned … that cases referred to Ireland in 2018 have not even reached the stage of a draft decision”. https://twitter.com/johnnyryan/status/1375149628895690754?s=20">https://twitter.com/johnnyrya...
5. Authorities in Germany, France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Austria, and Hungary formally criticised how the DPC handled the only ‘big tech’ case that it has completed as lead authority so far.

6. 1,000 days (nearly) since it was formally notified, the DPC has failed to act to end the largest data breach ever recorded. https://twitter.com/johnnyryan/status/1307942003636948993?s=20">https://twitter.com/johnnyrya...
7. The DPC has failed to implement an essential internal reform, five years after announcing that it was necessary in order to prepare for its GDPR role. https://twitter.com/johnnyryan/status/1359038430429216768?s=20">https://twitter.com/johnnyrya...
8. Government investment in the DPC has slowed since the GDPR. However, the DPC’s problems may be due to more than lack of investment.
9. Our submission to @lawlessj and colleagues notes that the DPC’s failure to uphold people& #39;s fundamental rights now carries an additional strategic economic risk to Ireland. Ireland may lose its position as the centre of data regulation in Europe. https://www.iccl.ie/digital-data/economic-reputational-risk-of-the-dpcs-failure-to-uphold-eu-data-rights/">https://www.iccl.ie/digital-d...
