  • 3.
    Where the views made known by the complainant in accordance with paragraph 1 of this Article do not lead to a change of the preliminary view referred to in paragraph 1, first subparagraph of this Article, the lead supervisory authority, in cooperation with the supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged, shall prepare a draft decision and submit it to the other supervisory authorities concerned, in accordance with Article 60(3) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679.
