“The DMA will go into effect next spring, and we’re getting ready to enforce it as soon as the first notices come in,” Vestager said in a speech on May 5, according to a news release from the commission. “I’m looking forward to the next episode. It entails numerous tangible preparations. It has to do with establishing new structures within the Commission. It concerns the creation of additional law texts on procedures or notification forms. Our teams are presently working on all of these preparations, and we hope to present the new structures as soon as possible,” she added.
