New research by Cullen International maps the authorities designated to enforce the Data Governance Act, the Data Act and the Artificial Intelligence Act across all the 27 EU member states.

Only the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland and Latvia have designated or proposed competent authorities for all three of the Data Governance Act, the Data Act and the AI Act.

While the Data Act will apply from 12 September 2025, to date only France and Latvia designated competent authorities responsible for its enforcement.

Regarding the AI Act, Poland and Spain are the only countries that proposed the establishment of a new supervisory body for the oversight of AI.

Cullen International’s Benchmark identifies the authorities designated to enforce these three legislative acts in all 27 EU member states.
