After many discussions over the conflict of the powers of the government and lawmakers a bill on pilot legal regimes (EPR) has been finalized for the second reading. The state Duma returned to the starting initiative of the almost unlimited space for legal experimentation: it is assumed that in addition to the aforementioned seven fields of application EPR decision on expansion will be taken by the government. Meanwhile, the economy Ministry has prepared a list of exemptions from laws which will make government to start innovative projects for the development of artificial intelligence technologies.The Ministry has identified a list of exemptions that the government can make laws within the framework of pilot legal regimes when you run digital projects in the field of artificial intelligence and high technology, published on regulation.gov.ru bill. So, in some cases, to the participants of the PSE may not apply certain provisions of laws “On personal data”, “On communication” and “About health”.Amendments to the latest law, in particular, will implement a system to support medical decision-making based on artificial intelligence. Now in the domestic market of medical technology more than ten is ready for commercial realization of decisions stated in the explanatory note to the document. However, their run impede the current processes of examination of the quality and safety of medical devices, registration. The proposed exemption from the laws on personal data and on the connection will also allow the processing of biometric data of citizens without their written consent. Previously, experts expressed concerns that such a possibility is the processing of personal data threatens to abuses and leakages, the state must act as the guarantor of safety of your data under your personal profile (see “Kommersant” on 26 June). In General, the project (at least for now) not possible contains. However, the authors point out that compensatory requirements and limitations of the exemptions the government will implement in the regulations.Development of amendments to the main bill on the pilot legal regimes, the so-called regulatory sandboxes, needed because of a conflict in the powers of the legislative and Executive powers — we are talking about giving the government the right to do spot exemptions to the laws for the EPR. The project was supposed to be adopted in the spring of 2019, however, to reach agreement on the issue to the deputies and the government succeeded only in may 2020: the first reading of the Ministry of economy adjusted the disputed norm, leaving the Parliament the right to make decisions about such exemptions in General. The government will be able to apply them in every ��onkretnyh case (see Kommersant dated 13 may).Project on the “regulatory sandboxing” can be adopted immediately in the second and third reading tomorrow. In addition to legal-technical corrections deputies of the Committee of economic policy of the state Duma proposed to significantly expand the scope of the project. As recommended for adoption table of amendments to the draft, in addition to medicine, transport, distance selling, financial market, architecture and construction industry, the project will apply to agriculture. However, the extension is more important: the decision about the future opening of the EPR in the application of which is not specified in the current closed list of industries that will take the White house. De facto the deputies returned to the starting initiative of the almost unlimited legal experiments in this earlier they, however, insisted on a closed list.Diana Galieva
