[13] Protection des données : la Commission reconnaît l'adéquation du
système canadien
La Commission européenne a reconnu que la loi canadienne sur la protection
des renseignements personnels et les documents électroniques assurait une
protection appropriée pour certaines données à caractère personnel que l'UE
transmet au Canada. Cela permettra la libre circulation d'un certain nombre
de données personnelles en provenance de l'UE et à destination du Canada,
sous réserve du respect de la loi canadienne, sans que des garanties
supplémentaires ne soient nécessaires pour satisfaire aux exigences de la
directive européenne sur la protection des données. Cette décision
concrétise l'engagement pris en 1999 par le Canada et l'UE dans leur
déclaration conjointe sur le commerce électronique et la société de
l'information mondiale. Les deux parties ont promis de travailler ensemble
à instaurer la confiance dans le commerce électronique international et à
assurer la libre circulation des données personnelles sur la base de normes
strictes en matière de protection.

controls are the challenges ahead"
David Byrne, European Commissioner for Health and Consumer Protection,
participated on 12 January in the opening of the 9th East-West Agricultural

prime importance the EU is paying to food security and reiterated the
Commission's approach to take consumer interests into account in all
policies. The next months will see the start of the operation of the
European Food Safety Authority. Further challenges lie in ensuring the
tough EU food safety legislation is transposed and implemented in the
accession countries and in upgrading the EU control systems. David Byrne
saluted Renate Künast on the occasion of the first anniversary of her
appointment and wished her continued success over the period ahead.(1) See
