18 December 2007 - New data retention rules in Lithuania (implementation of the Data Retention Directive 2006/24/EC).
Today the Seimas (Parliament of Lithuania), following the lines of the EU Data Retention Directive 2006/24/EC, enacted amendments of the 2004 Law on Electronic Communications, which specifically require communication service providers to retain communications data for the period of 12 months. The data shall be retained and disclosed free of charge to competent authorities. The new rules apply to fixed line, mobile and internet communications.
These amendments are complete departure from previous data retention rules, which allowed the service provider to retain only data required for direct business purposes (e.g. accounting) and only for as long as it was required for such business purposes.
