The plan includes extending the compliance deadline for high-risk AI systems – used in areas such as critical infrastructure, security, and healthcare – from August 2026 to late 2027. The package also provides for adjustments to data-protection rules, enabling broader access to datasets, including personal data, when justified by legitimate interests, with the objective of supporting the training of AI models.
