0 Introduction
0.1 General
In response to the growing deployment of RFID systems in Europe, the European Commission published in
2007 the Communication COM(2007) 96 ‘RFID in Europe: steps towards a policy framework’. This
Communication proposed steps which needed to be taken to reduce barriers to adoption of RFID whilst
respecting the basic legal framework safeguarding fundamental values such as health, environment, data
protection, privacy and security.
In December 2008, the European Commission addressed Mandate M/436 to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI in the
field of ICT as applied to RFID systems. The Mandate M/436 was accepted by the ESOs in the first months of
2009. The Mandate addresses the data protection, privacy and information aspects of RFID, and is being
executed in two phases. Phase 1, completed in May 2011, identified the work needed to produce a complete
framework of future RFID standards. The Phase 1 results are contained in the ETSI Technical Report TR 187
020, which was published in May 2011.
Phase 2 is concerned with the execution of the standardization work programme identified in the first phase.
This document will provide the additional information of the RFID application that will need to be provided to a
citizen by accessing the source identified on the sign where the RFID application is operating. This information
will be aligned with the details set out in the Recommendation, but some of this might not be available at the
outset, a TR is the preferred form of initial delivery to establish basic requirements.
0.2 Overview
th
On March 15 2007, the European Commission presented to the European Parliament a communication
about the steps towards a Policy Framework for Radio Frequency Identification in Europe. Here below is an
extract:
"COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION of 2009/05/12 on the implementation of privacy and data protection
principles in applications supported by radio-frequency identification {SEC (2009) 585}{SEC (2009) 586}.
Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a technology that allows automatic identification and data capture by
using radio frequencies. The salient features of this technology are that they permit the attachment of a unique
identifier and other information – using a microchip – to any object, animal or even a person, and to read this
information through a wireless device. RFID is not just "electronic tags" or "electronic barcodes". When linked
to databases and communications networks, such as the Internet, this technology provides a very powerful
way of delivering new services and applications, in potentially any environment.
RFID technology is indeed seen as the gateway to a new phase of development of the Information Society,
often referred to as the "internet of things" in which the internet does not only link computers and
communications terminals, but potentially any of our daily surrounding objects – be they clothes, consumer
goods, etc. It is this prospect that provoked the European Council of December 2006 to ask the European
Commission to review the challenges of the next generation of Internet and networks at the 2008 Spring
Council.
RFID is of policy concern because of its potential to become a new motor of growth and jobs, and thus a
powerful contributor to the Lisbon Strategy, if the barriers to innovation can be overcome. The production price
of RFID tags is now approaching a level that permits wide commercial and public
