Article 74 Missions du président

Summary What does Article 74 of the GDPR regulation say?

This article sets out the specific tasks assigned to the Chair of the European Data Protection Board, and gives the Board itself the authority to further define how responsibilities are divided between the Chair and deputy chairs.

It sits within the broader framework governing the Board's structure and operation, building on Article 73, which establishes how the Chair and deputy chairs are elected.

Important points:

The Chair of the Board is responsible for convening meetings, preparing agendas, notifying decisions to supervisory authorities, and ensuring the Board performs its tasks on time.
The Chair has a specific duty to ensure the timely functioning of the consistency mechanism referred to in Article 63.
The Board itself determines how tasks are allocated between the Chair and deputy chairs through its rules of procedure.
