THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
According to Article 25(2) of Decision 2008/615/JHA, the supply of personal data provided for under that Decision may not take place until the general provisions on data protection set out in Chapter 6 of that Decision have been implemented in the national law of the territories of the Member States involved in such supply. |
|
(2) |
Article 20 of Council Decision 2008/616/JHA (2) provides that the verification that the above condition has been met with respect to automated data exchange in accordance with Chapter 2 of Decision 2008/615/JHA is to be done on the basis of an evaluation report based on a questionnaire, an evaluation visit and a pilot run. |
|
(3) |
According to Chapter 4, point 1.1, of the Annex to Decision 2008/616/JHA, the questionnaire drawn up by the relevant Council working group concerns each of the automated data exchanges and has to be answered by a Member State as soon as it believes it fulfils the prerequisites for sharing data in the relevant data category. |
|
(4) |
Sweden has completed the questionnaire on data protection and the questionnaire on dactyloscopic data exchange. |
|
(5) |
A successful pilot run has been carried out by Sweden with Austria. |
|
(6) |
An evaluation visit has taken place in Sweden and a report on the evaluation visit has been produced by the Austrian evaluation team and forwarded to the relevant Council working group. |
|
(7) |
An overall evaluation report, summarising the results of the questionnaire, the evaluation visit and the pilot run concerning dactyloscopic data exchange, has been presented to the Council. |
|
(8) |
On 13 July 2015, the Council concluded that Sweden had fully implemented the general provisions on data protection set out in Chapter 6 of Decision 2008/615/JHA. |
|
(9) |
Therefore, for the purposes of automated searching of dactyloscopic data, Sweden should be entitled to receive and supply personal data pursuant to Article 9 of Decision 2008/615/JHA. |
|
(10) |
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. |

Ireland 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. |
|
(12) |
The United Kingdom is not bound by Decision 2008/615/JHA and is therefore not taking part in the adoption of this Decision which implements Decision 2008/615/JHA and is not bound by it or subject to its application, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
