How the European External Action Service (EEAS) assesses the potential human rights risk and general impact before providing assistance to non-EU countries to develop surveillance capabilities
Case 1472/2022/MHZ - Opened on Wednesday | 05 October 2022 - Institution concerned European External Action Service
The complainants are non-governmental organisations, which are concerned about the practice of the European External Action Service (EEAS) to provide assistance to non-EU countries to develop surveillance capabilities. In particular, the complainants consider that the EEAS failed to properly assess the potential human rights risk or carry out impact assessments, taking into account privacy concerns, before providing such assistance.
The Ombudsman opened an inquiry, and asked the EEAS to reply to a set of questions and sought to inspect certain documents related to the case.
