Recital 89
(89) Id-Direttiva 95/46/KE pprevediet obbligu ġenerali biex jiġi nnotifikat l-ipproċessar tad-data personali lill-awtoritajiet superviżorji.
Filwaqt li dak l-obbligu jipproduċi oneri amministrattivi u finanzjarji, ma kkontribwixxiex fil-każijiet kollha għat-titjib tal-protezzjoni tad-data personali.
Tali obbligi ta’ notifika ġenerali bla distinzjonijiet għandhom għalhekk jitneħħew, u jiġu sostitwiti minn proċeduri u mekkaniżmi effettivi li jiffokaw minflok fuq dawk it-tipi ta’ attivitajiet ta’ pproċessar li x’aktarx li jirriżultaw f’riskju għad-drittijiet u l-libertajiet tal-persuni fiżiċi minħabba n-natura, l-ambitu, il-kuntest u l-għanijiet tagħhom.
Tali tipi ta’ operazzjonijiet tal-ipproċessar jinkludu, b’mod partikolari, dawk li jinvolvu l-użu ta’ teknoloġiji ġodda, jew dawk li huma ta’ tip ġdid u li fir-rigward tagħhom il-kontrollur għadu ma wettaqx valutazzjoni tal-impatt fuq il-protezzjoni tad-data, jew fejn valutazzjoni tal-impatt fuq il-protezzjoni tad-data ssir meħtieġa minħabba ż-żmien li għadda mill-ipproċessar inizjali.
(89) Directive 95/46/EC provided for a general obligation to notify the processing of personal data to the supervisory authorities.
While that obligation produces administrative and financial burdens, it did not in all cases contribute to improving the protection of personal data.
Such indiscriminate general notification obligations should therefore be abolished, and replaced by effective procedures and mechanisms which focus instead on those types of processing operations which are likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons by virtue of their nature, scope, context and purposes.
Such types of processing operations may be those which in, particular, involve using new technologies, or are of a new kind and where no data protection impact assessment has been carried out before by the controller, or where they become necessary in the light of the time that has elapsed since the initial processing.
