Each
interested member state, national or international body
is encouraged to participate. The Data Protection Day is
intended to be organised in a flexible and decentralised
manner so as to cater for the wishes and resources of
each participant.
Interested states or bodies may determine the type of
activity they wish to organise. To this end, they may
wish to take into account any data protection
raising-awareness strategy that they may have at
national level.
The
Council of Europe has no specific budget for this
activity. Therefore, each State and/or interested body
has to finance on its own budget any activity it wishes
to organise within the framework of this Day.
However, in view of the fact that most data protection
supervisory authorities and some public or private
sector parties already organise awareness-raising
activities, participation in the Data Protection Day
would not necessarily entail an additional financial
burden.
It
would be more a matter of including the 28th of January
when planning events in the framework of a State and/or
interested body’s awareness-raising strategy.
