"The Internal Market Information System (IMI) has been in use since 2008 as a free service to Member States with a view to improving the exchange of information within the internal market. The system has proven its value as a rapid and secure means for cross-border information exchange and administrative cooperation with currently over 6 000 registered authorities in all the EU Member States. The future expansion of the IMI system to other areas of EU law will promote the establishment of a ‘genuine face-to-face electronic network for European administrations’. A smooth cross-border exchange of information between different authorities in the Member States is essential in our efforts to complete the single market. The IMI system has proven a reliable and efficient tool in the two areas in which it has already been operating, the Professional Qualifications Directive and the Services Directive, and the current proposal will allow us to further exploit IMI’s full potential with clear benefits for citizens and the internal market. However, I would like to express the legitimate sense of concern that many citizens have made me aware of: Article 13 of the proposal for a regulation introduces the blocking procedure after a period of 18 months from the closure of an administrative cooperation procedure for personal data processed in IMI and substantially extends the data retention period from six months to five years."@en1
