Recital 98

In order to ensure proper day-to-day management of the cross-border infrastructures for primary use and secondary use, it is necessary to create steering groups consisting of Member State representatives. These steering groups should take operational decisions on the technical day-to-day management of the cross-border infrastructures and their technical development, including on technical changes to the infrastructures, improving functionalities or services, or ensuring interoperability with other infrastructures, digital systems or data spaces. Their activities should not include contributing to the development of implementing acts affecting those infrastructures. The steering groups should also be able to invite representatives of other authorised participants in HealthData@EU as observers to their meetings and should consult relevant experts when carrying out their tasks.
