Highlights - Simplifying EU AI Rules - Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection
On 26 March 2026, Members of the European Parliament approved proposals to simplify artificial intelligence rules and propose clear application dates for high-risk system requirements and a ban on AI “nudifier” systems. The European Parliament adopted its position on a simplification (“omnibus”) proposal amending the Artificial Intelligence Act, by 569 votes in favour, 45 against, and with 23 abstentions.The proposal would delay the application of certain rules on high-risk artificial intelligence (AI) systems, to ensure that guidance and standards to help companies with implementation are ready.
In their amendments, MEPs introduce fixed dates for application to ensure predictability and legal certainty.
- For high-risk AI systems specifically listed in the regulation (including those involving biometrics, and those used in critical infrastructure, education, employment, essential services, law enforcement, justice and border management), MEPs propose 2 December 2027.
- For AI systems that are covered by EU sectoral legislation on safety and market surveillance, MEPs propose 2 August 2028.
MEPs are also in favour of giving providers until 2 November 2026 to comply with rules on watermarking AI-created audio, image, video or text content to indicate its origin.
Negotiations between the Parliament and the Council will now begin.
