There are controversial aspects to this report as there are, in fact, to the Commission’s own proposal. As the rapporteur for the Committee on Legal Affairs and the Internal Market said, it would perhaps be preferable for the two directives, that is, the current proposal on the processing of personal data and the protection of privacy in the electronic communications sector and the directive on universal service, to merge. Furthermore, the Commission proposal to give employers the right to monitor their employees is a complicated and very sensitive issue.
Equally, the bulk sending of unsolicited e-mails (so-called
), is another cause for concern, for which a satisfactory solution should be found. This is why we should devote our full attention to the position of DECO, which endorses the Commission proposal, which in turn seeks to make prior
consent compulsory for unsolicited emails, since this appears to be the best guarantee for European consumers’ choice as to whether they receive spam mail or not. This option thereby attempts to protect consumers from being bombarded with unsolicited electronic mails in the form of advertising, except when they have given their consent to receive such mail."@en1
