While many of us were enjoying summer holidays, a short but mighty Statutory Instrument (SI) was introduced. To give it its full title: S.I. No. 366 of 2025 European Union (Artificial Intelligence) (Designation) Regulations 2025 (SI).
This SI designates the Data Protection Commission (DPC) as the market surveillance authority for the purposes of Article 74 (8) EU AI Act.
This designation as per Article 74 (8) is for high-risk AI systems in point 1 of Annex III (biometrics) in so far as the systems are used for law enforcement purposes, border management and justice and democracy and for high-risk AI systems listed in points 6, 7 and 8 of Annex III (law enforcement, migration, asylum and border control and administration of justice and democratic processes).
The remit of the DPC keeps growing. While the DPC's last annual report touched on AI, the next report is likely to see a much bigger emphasis on the DPC's growing remit in the area of AI enforcement.
