|
(16) |
In its judgment of 22 September 2016 in Joined Cases C-14/15 and C-116/15, the Court of Justice of the European Union held that Article 25(2) of Decision 2008/615/JHA unlawfully lays down a requirement of unanimity for the adoption of measures necessary to implement that Decision. Decisions 2010/689/EU, 2011/472/EU, 2011/715/EU, 2011/887/EU, 2012/58/EU, 2012/299/EU, 2012/445/EU, 2012/673/EU, 2013/3/EU, 2013/148/EU, 2013/152/EU and 2014/410/EU were adopted on the basis of Article 25(2) of Decision 2008/615/JHA and consequently are vitiated by a procedural defect. |
|
(17) |
With a view to ensuring the legal certainty of the receipt and supply of personal data pursuant to Decision 2008/615/JHA with regard to the Member States concerned by Decisions 2010/689/EU, 2011/472/EU, 2011/715/EU, 2011/887/EU, 2012/58/EU, 2012/299/EU, 2012/445/EU, 2012/673/EU, 2013/3/EU, 2013/148/EU, 2013/152/EU and 2014/410/EU, those Decisions should be replaced by this Decision. |
|
(18) |
With a view to ensuring continued receipt and supply of personal data pursuant to Articles 3 and 4 of Decision 2008/615/JHA, Decisions 2010/689/EU, 2011/472/EU, 2011/715/EU, 2011/887/EU, 2012/58/EU, 2012/299/EU, 2012/445/EU, 2012/673/EU, 2013/3/EU, 2013/148/EU, 2013/152/EU and 2014/410/EU cease to produce effects as from the date of entry into force of this Decision. |
|
(19) |
For the same reason, the entry into force of this Decision should be without prejudice to the validity of automated data exchange carried out by the Member States pursuant to Decisions 2010/689/EU, 2011/472/EU, 2011/715/EU, 2011/887/EU, 2012/58/EU, 2012/299/EU, 2012/445/EU, 2012/673/EU, 2013/3/EU, 2013/148/EU, 2013/152/EU and 2014/410/EU. |
|
(20) |
Moreover, the Member States which obtained personal data pursuant to Decisions 2010/689/EU, 2011/472/EU, 2011/715/EU, 2011/887/EU, 2012/58/EU, 2012/299/EU, 2012/445/EU, 2012/673/EU, 2013/3/EU, 2013/148/EU, 2013/152/EU and 2014/410/EU should continue to be entitled to further process those data at national level or between Member States for the purposes laid down in Article 26 of Decision 2008/615/JHA. |
|
(21) |
Article 33 of Decision 2008/615/JHA confers upon the Council implementing powers with a view to adopting measures necessary to implement that Decision, in particular as regards the receipt and supply of personal data provided for under that Decision. As the conditions for triggering the exercise of such implementing powers have been met and the procedure in that regard has been followed, an implementing decision on the automated data exchange with regard to DNA data with regard to Slovakia, Portugal, Latvia, Lithuania, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Cyprus, Poland, Sweden, Malta and Belgium should be adopted in order to allow those Member States to continue receiving and supplying personal data pursuant to Articles 3 and 4 of Decision 2008/615/JHA. |
|
(22) |
Denmark is bound by Decision 2008/615/JHA and is therefore taking part in the adoption and application of this Decision which implements Decision 2008/615/JHA. |
|
(23) |
The United Kingdom and Ireland are bound by Decision 2008/615/JHA and are therefore taking part in the adoption and application of this Decision which implements Decision 2008/615/JHA, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
For the purpose of automated searching and comparison of DNA data, Slovakia, Portugal, Latvia, Lithuania, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Cyprus, Poland, Sweden, Malta and Belgium shall continue to be entitled to receive and supply personal data pursuant to Articles 3 and 4 of Decision 2008/615/JHA.
