   ▸ AIAI: What changed Written by AI from the official text — check the source

   Adds Article 2a on applicable procedural law, specifying that national law governs direct interactions with a supervisory authority and that complainants may communicate only with the authority they lodged the complaint with. The other changes are formal or wording: modal verbs adjusted, a typo fixed, and regulation citations standardized to "(EU)".

2. Committee draft → Tabled for plenary Draft report (LIBE) → Report A9-0045/2024

   ▸ AIAI: What changed Written by AI from the official text — check the source

   The versions differ mainly in substance: the new text adds detailed procedural rules on complaints, investigations, cooperation, and judicial remedies. It introduces a nine-month deadline for draft decisions, with extensions, and a three-month deadline for non-contentious cases. It strengthens the role of the Board in resolving procedural disputes and allows parties to seek judicial remedies against supervisory authorities. It adds detailed rules on amicable settlements, ex officio procedures, and cooperation with other authorities. The other changes are formal or wording: renumbering, typo fixes, and updates to cross-references.
