green pass:
after the warning provision of 23 April ", interlocutions with the Government followed, still in progress. these days,
aimed at adapting, probably with the amendments that will be presented, the text of the decree-law to the findings of the Guarantor
". There remains "a margin of indeterminacy in the regulatory provision, capable of extending the perimeter of data processing to a not insignificant extent". "It is therefore appropriate - he continued - to
introduce a clarification that excludes theuse of passes for purposes other than those expressly provided for by the decree-law
, hopefully circumscribing more ex-ante the area left to the determination of the guidelines ". With the necessary improvements - continued Stanzione -," the discipline of national green certifications can achieve an appropriate balance between privacy, health needs, freedom of movement and economic initiative. In this sense, a valid tool can be outlined (albeit temporarily with respect to the European regulations), in order to allow safe reopening and, with them, an at least partial economic recovery "." However, for the purposes of the best possible effectiveness - as well as the full legitimacy - of this instrument - he added - it is essential that it contemplates the essential guarantees to ensure, even in this case,that synergy between individual rights and collective demands on which the action to combat the pandemic has been based up to now. Indeed, it has been able to shun the logic of the exception (according to which necessitas non habet legem), reaffirming the value of democratic mediation for the search for the highest balance between individual and collective, person and state, freedom and power ".
