Artikel 88 Kommittéförfarande

Summary What does Article 88 of the DSA regulation say?

This brief procedural article establishes the committee structure that assists the Commission in carrying out its implementing functions under the Digital Services Act.

It designates the "Digital Services Committee" as the relevant committee and anchors it within the standard EU comitology framework set out in Regulation (EU) No 182/2011.

The reference to Article 4 of that Regulation means the advisory procedure applies, which is the mechanism through which the committee delivers opinions on proposed implementing acts.

This article is referenced throughout the DSA wherever the Commission is empowered to adopt implementing acts, making it a quiet but structurally important provision.

Important points:

The Digital Services Committee is established to assist the Commission in adopting implementing acts under the DSA.
The committee operates under the advisory procedure as defined in Article 4 of Regulation (EU) No 182/2011.
This article is the procedural backbone referenced across the DSA whenever the Commission exercises its implementing powers.
