And compared to the Netherlands, that guideline was even supposed to have "teeth". Out of the FSFE news item [1] back then: "Importantly, the new rules come with a mechanism to ensure they are followed. Both public bodies and the interested public can ask the Italian Digital Agency to check if a given organisation is following the correct procedure. Administrative courts can annul decisions that contradict these rules. In case of negligence, individual public servants may be held personally liable."
