Notable national choices

  • Most delayed major-economy EU member state — General Scheme published August 2024, still in pre-legislative scrutiny as of April 2026.
  • Will expand scope from roughly 450 entities (under NIS1) to over 6,000.
  • Ireland is a co-owner of Belgium's CyFun® framework and is expected to adopt it as a recognised compliance reference.
