At the meeting on May 25, the Board was informed about Metroselskabet's implementation of the rules for handling personal data and documentation under the EU's new General Data Protection Regulation, which comes into force today.

"Metroselskabet has prepared an internal policy for the processing of personal data, various procedures and templates for use by employees when processing personal data and for information on the Company's platforms such as the website, etc. The Company has also focused throughout May on ensuring the implementation of the new procedures in the Company's workflows," says Chairman of the Board Jørn Neergaard Larsen.

The Board was also informed about the status of the decided investments in the existing Metro M1/M2, where a contract has been signed for the purchase of eight new trains to increase the capacity of the system and reduce congestion. Production of the trains is expected to start at the end of 2018 for delivery in Copenhagen in early 2021.

At the meeting, the Board also received an update on the M3 line project and the implementation of the quality supplement decided in connection with the political agreement on the M3 line (2005) and the M3 line Act (2007). The surcharge is part of the financing of the capital's new Metro line and will add an average of DKK 1 per passenger to all trips on the Metro when the M3 line opens.
