MIL-OSI Europe: Answer to a written question – Timeframe for the investigations into online platforms under the Digital Services Act – E-001454/2025(ASW)

The Commission has taken, and continues to take, swift and decisive action in relation to the enforcement of the Digital Services Act (DSA)[1].

As part of its enforcement actions, the Commission has opened several formal proceedings including those mentioned in the question of the Honourable Member.

Additionally, the Commission sent requests for information to providers of Very Large Online Platforms (VLOPs) and Very Large Online Search Engines (VLOSEs) regarding their compliance with the DSA, issued data retention orders, conducted regulatory dialogues and engaged with experts and civil society organisations[2].

The Commission pursues the open investigations under the DSA as a matter of priority.

However, the Commission cannot comment on the findings of ongoing investigations, which remain confidential until a decision is taken as a result of those proceedings.

Every investigation is pursued thoroughly taking into account the due process, the rights of all parties involved and the complexity of the legal and technical aspects of the case.
