EU Chat Control regulation
Follow-up questions on Luxembourg's position and votes on the EU regulation against child sexual abuse material, which would require scanning private messages. The questions track each Council presidency's new compromise text.
Outcome so far
Government position moved from 'consultations ongoing' (2023) to explicit opposition to mandatory mass scanning (2024-2025).
Status
Ongoing at EU level.
What I'm asking next
How Luxembourg will vote on the final Council text, and whether an impact assessment exists for Luxchat.
The questions
Newest first. Each question links to the full text and the government's answer on chd.lu (in French); the summaries are ours. Question numbers restart with each legislature.
