Paragraph 11
11. Emphasises that the Financial Regulation should include provisions that require the responsible actors to gather and keep uniform records of economic operators and beneficial owners in order to allow identification across EU programmes, regardless of who implements these programmes and of management mode; considers that these requirements should be balanced to reflect strictly relevant information items; underlines that data may only be published in line with data protection requirements and the standing jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Unionemphasises the need to remove any technical and legal barriers to the collection of data on company structures and beneficial ownership and establish measures to ensure a digital and interoperable, standardised collection of information on the recipients of Union funding, including on those ultimately benefitting, directly or indirectly, from Union funding and their beneficial owners; acknowledges that the EDPS sees no general data protection issues on establishing such interoperability, but the necessity for a clear legal basis; considers that compulsory information items collected for audit and control purposes need to include as a minimum the registration number of legal entities, national identification number for natural persons, an indication of the type of beneficiary, sub-contractors, beneficial owners, whether the beneficiary also receives State aid and contact information; underlines that the system needs to facilitate the aggregation of individual amounts concerning the same direct or ultimate beneficiary; considers that publicly accessible systems should facilitate both individual searches through a web-based tool and systemic analysis through bulk downloads; urges Member States and the Commission to guarantee an increased interoperability of the existing, European and national, databases and data-mining tools;
