Summary by the Danish Parliament (in Danish)
Forslaget skal etablere rammerne for det danske tilsyn med AI-forordningen. Forslaget fastlægger, hvilke beføjelser de kommende markedsovervågningsmyndigheder skal have, herunder bl.a. mulighed for at kræve oplysninger, gennemføre kontrolundersøgelser, samt adgang til at offentliggøre udvalgte afgørelser. Der indføres desuden mulighed for at sanktionere overtrædelser af AI-forordningen og loven med bøder. Forslaget skal understøtte en ensartet håndhævelse af AI-forordningen og skabe klare rammer for virksomheder og myndigheder. Samtidig gives der mulighed for at centralisere visse administrative processer for at reducere virksomhedernes administrative byrder. Med lovforslaget foreslås den eksisterende lov om supplerende bestemmelser til kunstig intelligens ophævet. Relevante bestemmelser videreføres, og der indføres nye regler knyttet til forordningens krav til blandt andet højrisikosystemer og krav til gennemsigtighed i visse AI-systemer.
