Our lecturer from the UIC Barcelona Law School, Juan José Guardia, participated with a contribution on access to archives in police, judicial or missing person and abduction of newborn baby investigations in a commentary on the General Data Protection Regulations and the Organic Law on the Protection of Personal Data and the Guarantee of Digital Rights (LOPDGDD). The publication includes 212 contributions from specialists in the field of personal data protection rights, including Guardia, who analyses the twenty-second additional provision of the LOPDGDD.

The lecturer focused on the fact that competent public authorities have to facilitate access to public and ecclesiastical archives diligently as far as the data requested by a police or judicial investigation into a missing person is concerced. In addition, Guardia analyses complaints before Spanish courts and tribunals for different cases that are being filed.

This volume, published by Civitas, was coordinated by Antonio Troncoso Reigada, a full professor of Constitutional Law at the University of Cadiz and director of the Data Protection Agency for the Community of Madrid between 2001 and 2010. And it has a prologue written by the President of the Constitutional Court, Juan José González Rivas.
