Its main aims are to safely enable the sharing of sensitive data held by public bodies, to regulate data sharing by private actors.[4][*[failed verification](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability)*]

On 30 November 2021, the EU Parliament and Council reached an agreement on the wording of the DGA.[5] Following its adoption, it was published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 3 June 2022.[6]

The proposed legislation has been analyzed by independent parties.[7][8][9][10]
