Abstract
In the attempt to harmonise the application of European data protection legislation to biometric systems, the Art. 29 Data Protection Working Party adopted a working paper on biometrics. In this article, the risks mentioned in the working paper are summarised and some decisions of European Data Protection Authorities with respect to the implementation of biometrics are discussed. The author finds that especially the application of the proportionality principle still leads to contradictory decisions.
