‘No systemic breach’ reasoning and closure during active rectification (Arts 18-20 EUDPR) – PETI 0447/2025 & 0447/2025-bis

The request was partially successful.

Andrei-Daniel Posdarie

Dear European Parliament,

This application is made under Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 and Article 15 TFEU on public access to documents.
It does not concern access to my personal data under Regulation (EU) 2018/1725.
The purpose is to obtain transparency regarding the factual and legal reasoning underlying the Parliament’s and the European Commission’s assessment of Petitions 0447/2025 and 0447/2025-bis, both concerning systemic GDPR non-enforcement in Romania, and the subsequent procedural steps taken by PETI.

I respectfully request access to:

1) All internal correspondence, analyses, or briefing notes exchanged between the Committee on Petitions (PETI), the European Commission (DG JUST C-2/C-3/C-4), and the Parliament’s Legal Service that supported or discussed the statement contained in PETI_CM(2025) 777105 (5 September 2025):

“The petitioner mentions a potential systemic breach but does not provide any element or evidence pointing to its existence.”

2) Any factual or legal reasoning prepared by PETI, the Secretariat, or DG JUST to reach or endorse that conclusion, including internal memoranda, background papers, or e-mails assessing whether evidence demonstrated systemic GDPR failures.

3) Any correspondence or minutes addressing the following factual elements raised in the petitions:
– Expired mandates of the Romanian Data Protection Authority (ANSPDCP) since 2023/2024, affecting independence under Article 52 GDPR;
Example:
a) Ancuța Gianina Opre – mandate expired November 2023
Appointment: Senate Decision 48/26.06.2013
Renewal: Senate Decision 175/26.11.2018
b) Mirela Nistoroiu – mandate expired April 2024
Appointment: Senate Decision 19/17.04.2019

c) Law 102/2005, Art. 6(1) and 8(1): Maximum 2 mandates, continuity only until the appointment of a successor.
→ Opre: +1 year and 8 months past term
→ Nistoroiu: +1 year and 4 months past term

– Operation of over 20 Bar Councils (“Barouri de Avocați”) without designated DPOs, published privacy policies, or official domains (using @ gmail.com or @ yahoo.com addresses);
Examples: Argeș, Bacău, Bihor, Botoșani, Buzău, Caraș-Severin, Covasna, Dâmbovița, Giurgiu, Gorj, Harghita, Ialomița, Mehedinți, Mureș, Neamț, Olt, Satu Mare, Teleorman, Vâlcea, Vaslui, Vrancea – some domains registered to individuals (e.g., Argeș) and even routed through Germany.
– Non-functionality of the National Integrity Agency (ANI) and its impact on enforcement of Directive (EU) 2019/1937;
– Communications or interventions by the Romanian Prime Minister to the DPA President raising independence concerns.

4) All documents, notes, or e-mails relating to the decision to merge Petition 0447/2025 (“Systemic non-enforcement of GDPR: expired DPA mandates and independence risks”) with Petition 0447/2025-bis (“Alleged breach of the Whistleblower Directive”), including internal recommendations, Rule 232(8) references, and correspondence explaining the rationale for treating two distinct thematic petitions as a single case.

5) Documents, notes, or e-mails concerning the decision to mark Petition 0447/2025 as “closed” on the PETI portal after 6 November 2025 while a formal rectification and restriction-of-processing request under Articles 18 and 20 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 remained active.

6) Any internal analysis or legal reasoning used by PETI, the Secretariat, or the Parliament’s Data-Protection Officer to justify proceeding with closure despite an active Article 20 restriction, including risk assessments or compliance checks.

7) Any correspondence between PETI, the Data-Protection Officer, and the Access-to-Documents Unit referring to rectification, restriction of processing, or Article 19 notifications related to these petitions.

The request is limited to documents created or received between 1 July 2025 and 7 November 2025.

Please process this request under Regulation 1049/2001. Any necessary redactions of personal data may be applied under Article 4(1)(b) of that Regulation.

Kindly acknowledge receipt and provide the registration number of this application.

Yours faithfully,

Statement: “The petitioner mentions ‘a potential systemic breach’ but does not provide any element or evidence pointing to the existence of a systemic breach.”

This statement is factually incorrect.

DECISION No. 48 of June 26, 2013 on the appointment of the President of the National Supervisory Authority for Personal Data Processing, published in the OFFICIAL GAZETTE No. 383 of June 27, 2013 – https://legislatie.just.ro/Public/Detali...

DECISION No. 175 of November 26, 2018 on the appointment of the President of the National Supervisory Authority for Personal Data Processing, published in the OFFICIAL GAZETTE No. 1009 of November 28, 2018 – https://legislatie.just.ro/Public/Detali...

DECISION No. 19 of April 17, 2019 on the appointment of the Vice-President of the National Supervisory Authority for Personal Data Processing, published in the OFFICIAL GAZETTE No. 303 of April 18, 2019 – https://legislatie.just.ro/public/Detali...

Law 102/2005 – https://www.dataprotection.ro/servlet/Vi...
Law 102/2005, Article 6(1): Mandate = 5 years, maximum = 2 terms.
Law 102/2005, Article 8(1): Allows the President to stay in office only until a new President is appointed.

High independence risks under Article 52 GDPR.

Despite two mandates under Law 102/2005 Article 6(1), the President is still in the position two years after expiry based on Article 8(1) of the same law. Appointment procedure was discussed in the Senate on 27 November 2023, point 12, available at:
https://www.senat.ro/ProgramLucruZi.aspx...

According to the stenogram of the Senate plenary session on 27 November 2023, Mr. Sorin Mihai Cimpeanu announced the procedure for nominating the President of the National Supervisory Authority for Personal Data Processing (ANSPDCP), with submission of candidatures by parliamentary groups until 5 December 2023 and hearings of candidates and submission of the report by the Legal Committee until 11 December 2023:
https://www.senat.ro/PAGINI/Stenograme/S...

Yet, as of 28 October 2025, Ancuţa Gianina Opre remains in the position.
According to Senate Decision No. 19 of 17 April 2019 (Official Gazette No. 303/18.04.2019 – https://legislatie.just.ro/public/Detali...), the Vice-President of ANSPDCP was appointed in 2019 for a five-year mandate. The mandate therefore expired in 2024, yet the same individual remains in office.

The Senate failed under Law 544/2001 (Freedom of Information Act) to clarify when the renewal procedure was discussed or to provide supporting documentation, replying only that the mandate is considered extended under Article 8(1) of Law 102/2005 “until a new successor is appointed.”

These facts show an institutional breach of Article 52 GDPR on supervisory authority independence.

Bar Councils (“Barouri de Avocaţi”) using consumer email addresses, lacking Privacy Policies, Data Protection Officers, Terms and Conditions, and Consent Forms:

All the above Bar Councils use free consumer email providers (Gmail or Yahoo) instead of professional domains, and none of their websites contain Privacy Policies, Terms and Conditions, or Data Protection Officer details.

This situation demonstrates a systemic failure in applying GDPR Articles 5, 24, 32, and 37–39, as well as non-compliance with national Law 190/2018 implementing GDPR.

Together with the expired mandates of the DPA leadership, these facts constitute verifiable evidence of systemic non-enforcement of the GDPR in Romania, directly contradicting the PETI_CM(2025)777105 EN assertion that the petitioner provided “no element or evidence” of such a systemic breach.

Confirmatory Application under Article 7(2) – Ref. 2025-0574

Dear Transparency Unit,
Dear Secretary-General,

Please pass this on to the person who reviews confirmatory applications.

I am filing the following Confirmatory Application pursuant to Article 7(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 with regards to my access to documents request '‘No systemic breach’ reasoning and closure during active rectification (Arts 18-20 EUDPR) – PETI 0447/2025 & 0447/2025-bis'.

Your reply of 27 November 2025[1] does not address my request[2][3]. The three documents disclosed under reference EP-PE_DV(2025)0574 [4] are already public and relate solely to the Commission’s standard observations of 4–6 September 2025 [5][6][7].

My application explicitly requested internal analyses, correspondence and legal reasoning (Items 1–7 listed in my initial request [2][3]), including documents:

1) assessing whether evidence showed systemic GDPR non-enforcement in Romania,

2) concerning the Commission’s conclusion “the petitioner mentions ‘a potential systemic breach’ but does not provide any element or evidence pointing to the existence of a systemic breach” despite the extensive evidentiary documentation already submitted on file(i) Romanian DPA Expired Mandates, (ii) 20+ Lawyers Bar Councils infringing EU GDPR Regulation, (iii)Prime Minister of Romania interfering directly with forwards to DPA President, (iv) Romanian Senate confirming expired Mandates for the DPA President and obstructing access under FOI to Stenograme and discussions about DPA Vice-President and its expired mandate, (v) National Integrity Agency (ANI) infringing law 361/2022 which transpose Directive 1937/2019 - failure to respond/follow-up from July by date[2][3][5][6][7],

3) concerning the closure decision based on inaccurate data [5][6][7] while a rectification/restriction request was active[2][3] - dispatched on 31 October 2025, Acknowledged on 3 November 2025 and reconfirmed by your Unit on 5 November 2025 (while Article 20 and Article 18 restrictions under Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 were formally active and acknowledged by Parliament and your unit) , and

4) documenting use of Rule 232(8) to merge petitions (Petition 0447/2025 (“Alleged breach of the Whistleblower Directive”) with Petition 0447/2025-bis (“Systemic non-enforcement of GDPR: expired DPA mandates and independence risks”) [2][3]

None of these categories have been addressed.
No search description.
No partial access.
No Article 4 exemptions cited.
No assistance under Article 6(2).

This constitutes a constructive refusal of access.

I therefore request:

A) A fresh, full document identification and assessment for all items 1–7 within the scope [2][3] (1 July – 7 November 2025), including:
• PETI Secretariat
• DG JUST (C-2/C-3/C-4)
• Parliament Legal Service
• Parliament DPO

B) For any refusal or redaction, please specify:
• exact document(s) withheld,
• legal basis under Article 4 (with reasoning),
• date and author, and
• whether partial access can be granted.

C) A search log identifying all repositories searched and keywords applied.

The deadline for this confirmatory application runs from 28 November 2025, with the statutory response due by 19 December 2025.

A full history of my request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address [8]

Finally, with the European Parliament currently engaged in legislative work on GDPR enforcement reform (including the proposed “Omnibus Regulation GDPR” – COM(2025) 501 final), it is essential that the underlying records regarding systemic enforcement failures and independence impairments are accurate and complete. Any assessment or closure based on incomplete reasoning risks undermining Parliament’s future legislative position and credibility.

Thank you for confirming registration of this confirmatory application.

Kind regards,

Why the Commission Statement from the Conclusion of their Notice to Members from 05.09.2025 (PETI-CM-777105_EN), “the petitioner mentions ‘a potential systemic breach’ but does not provide any element or evidence pointing to the existence of a systemic breach” is personal data

Context

In the documents disclosed under reference PETI-CM-777105_EN and EP-PE_DV(2025)0574, the Commission stated that “the petitioner mentions a potential systemic breach but does not provide any element or evidence pointing to the existence of a systemic breach”. This is not merely abstract legal analysis. It is an evaluation of an identified petitioner (by name, petition number and submissions) that directly affects whether his petition is closed or escalated.

Under binding CJEU case-law and Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 (EUDPR), such targeted assessments constitute personal data, subject to rectification and restriction of processing, not only transparency rules.

Why this statement is personal data

The Court has clarified that information is personal data when, by its content, purpose or effect, it relates to an identifiable person:

• In Nowak (2017), examiner comments evaluating a named candidate were personal data because they influenced their situation and rights. (paras 33-44 & 45-63)
• In EDPS v SRB (2025), confirmed that subjective assessments held by EU institutions remain personal data where they influence a person’s administrative treatment — regardless of being opinions.
• YS (2014) is a narrow exception limited to purely abstract legal reasoning detached from an individual’s specific performance.

Here, the sentence:

Content — Evaluates the petitioner’s evidence and credibility
Purpose — Justifies non-escalation
Effect — Determines petition closure and dismissal of systemic GDPR concerns

This clearly “relates to” the petitioner within the meaning of Article 3(1) EUDPR.

Legal consequences under the EUDPR

If the statement is inaccurate:

• Article 18 EUDPR — Right to rectification
• Article 20 EUDPR — Right to restriction of processing while accuracy is contested
• Article 21 EUDPR — Notification obligation regarding rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing

The statement is also stored in the petitioner’s dedicated case file and triggers administrative consequences. Therefore, it cannot lawfully be relied upon for petition-closure decisions until its accuracy is resolved. Recognising this sentence as personal data matters because it activates binding EU data-protection obligations, ensuring decisions affecting individuals are based on accurate and fair information.

your application.

European Parliament confirmatory decision published (Ref. 2025-0574C; 02.02.2026)

I am publishing the European Parliament’s confirmatory decision (Vice-President Roberts Zīle; Ref. 2025-0574C, dated 02.02.2026) for transparency (postal address redacted).

Folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1...

PDF: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1szAL0mf...

Key points in the decision:

Parliament states it has no competence to treat access requests for documents held by DG JUST / European Commission.
After a renewed search (including PETI Secretariat, Data Protection Office and Legal Service), Parliament identified no further documents within scope.
Parliament also states it is not obliged to provide a “search log” where such a log is not contained in an existing document.

This closes the Parliament-side confirmatory track and is relevant to the parallel Commission access-to-documents requests. (Direct Link: https://www.asktheeu.org/request/access_...)
