(3) It is necessary to improve the conditions for data sharing in the internal market, by creating a harmonised framework for data exchanges and by improving trust among industrial stakeholders, namely digital service providers and business users. It is important to ensure data access neutrality and greater interoperability between different data intermediary, avoiding lock- in effects. Sector- specific legislation can develop, adapt and propose new and complementary elements, depending on the specificities of the sector, such as the envisaged legislation on the European health data space25 and on access to vehicle data. Moreover, certain sectors of the economy are already regulated by sector- specific Union law that include rules relating to cross-border or Union wide sharing or access to data26 . This Regulation is therefore without prejudice to Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (27 ), and in particular the implementation of this Regulation shall not prevent cross border transfers of data in accordance with Chapter V of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 from taking place, Directive (EU) 2016/680 of the European Parliament and of the Council (28 ), Directive (EU) 2016/943 of the European Parliament and of the Council (29 ), Regulation (EU) 2018/1807 of the European Parliament and of the Council (30 ), Regulation (EC) No 223/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council (31 ), Directive 2000/31/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (32 ), Directive 2001/29/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (33 ), Directive (EU) 2019/790 of the European Parliament and of the Council (34 ), Directive 2004/48/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (35 ), Directive (EU) 2019/1024 of the European Parliament and of the Council (36 ), as well as Regulation 2018/858/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council (37 ), Directive 2010/40/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council (38 ) and Delegated Regulations adopted on its basis, and any other sector-specific Union legislation that organises the access to and re-use of data. This Regulation should be without prejudice to the access and use of data for the purpose of international cooperation in the context of prevention, investigation, detection or prosecution of criminal offences or the execution of criminal penalties. A horizontal regime for the re-use of certain categories of protected data held by public sector bodies, the provision of data sharing services and of services based on data altruism in the Union should be established. Specific characteristics of different sectors may require the design of sectoral data-based systems, while building on the requirements of this Regulation. Where a sector-specific Union legal act requires public sector bodies, providers of data sharing services or registered entities providing data altruism services to comply with specific additional technical, administrative or organisational requirements, including through an authorisation or certification regime, those provisions of that sector-specific Union legal act should also apply. _________________ 25 See: Annexes to the Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on Commission Work Programme 2021 (COM(2020) 690 final). 26For example, Directive 2011/24/EU in the context of the European Health Data Space, and relevant transport legislation such as Directive 2010/40/EU, Regulation 2019/1239 and Regulation (EU) 2020/1056, in the context of the European Mobility Data Space. 27Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation), (OJ L 119, 4.5.2016, p.1) 28Directive (EU) 2016/680 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data by competent authorities for the purposes of the prevention, investigation, detection or prosecution of criminal offences or the execution of criminal penalties, and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Council Framework Decision 2008/977/JHA.

(4) Action at Union level is necessary in order to address the barriers to a well- functioning data-driven economy and to create a Union-wide governance framework for data access and use, in particular regarding the re-use of certain types of data held by the public sector, the provision of services by data sharing providers to business users and to data subjects, as well as the collection and processing of data made available for altruistic purposes by natural and legal persons. It is necessary to establish favourable conditions for the constitutions of new independent companies (data providers) able to make data assets accessible to everyone in a neutral way.
