The guidelines detail the interpretation of "relevant and reasoned objection" as defined in Article 4(24) of the GDPR. They focus on the process for Concerned Supervisory Authorities (CSAs) to object to draft decisions by the Lead Supervisory Authority (LSA) under Article 60 of the GDPR. The document outlines how an objection should be structured, the necessary elements it must contain to meet the defined threshold, and the way in which it should address potential infringements of the GDPR or inappropriate actions towards controllers or processors.
