The public consultation on the draft law establishing a framework for the cybersecurity of networks and information systems of general interest for public security ("NIS2 law"), as well as on the draft implementing Royal Decree, was a great success.

 

More than 300 comments were received from around sixty participants, demonstrating the interest of companies, public authorities and individuals in this issue.

 

The Prime Minister's Strategy Unit and the Centre for Cybersecurity Belgium would like to thank all the participants for their contributions. These comments and the required formal opinions will be used by the inter-ministerial working group to adapt the draft texts in the coming weeks or to provide additional explanations in the explanatory memorandum.

 

Every effort will be made to ensure that this Law and its Royal Decree are adopted before the deadline for transposition of the NIS2 Directive, i.e. 17 October 2024.
