Leire Pajín, a Spanish MEP from the Socialists and Democrats group, has asked the European Commission whether national Digital Services Coordinators are complying with their obligation to share data on orders to act against illegal content via the AGORA platform. The question, submitted on 22 June 2026, targets the implementation of Article 9(4) of the Digital Services Act (DSA), which requires Member States to transmit copies of such orders without undue delay. Pajín's inquiry seeks to verify compliance, identify non-compliant Member States, and explore potential Commission measures to protect fundamental rights affected by unlawful conduct.
The parliamentary question follows the adoption of the implementing regulation that established AGORA as a secure data-sharing system between Digital Services Coordinators and the Commission, now two years in operation. Pajín's three-part question asks: whether coordinators are transmitting the required information; which Member States are failing to comply; and whether the Commission plans any measures based on the shared data to safeguard fundamental rights. The question does not specify numerical targets or deadlines but calls for a compliance review and potential policy action.
Pajín's initiative reflects a push for transparency and accountability in the enforcement of the DSA, particularly regarding the balance between combating illegal content and protecting fundamental rights such as freedom of expression and privacy. The Commission is expected to reply within approximately six weeks, and its answer will signal the level of Member State compliance and any planned enforcement or support measures. The outcome could affect digital rights advocates, online platforms subject to removal orders, and national authorities responsible for DSA enforcement.
