Comments on the proposal for a Regulation on preventing the dissemination of terrorist content online (COM(2018) 640 final)

The Meijers Committee would like to take the opportunity to comment on the Proposal for a Regulation on preventing the dissemination of terrorist content online (COM(2018) 640 final). The Meijers Committee provides for input in the legislative procedure, to encourage an appropriate and proportionate balancing between, on the hand, the need for effectively combatting the distribution of terrorist content, and, on the other hand, the freedom of expression and information, as laid down in Article 11 of the EU Fundamental Rights Charter.
