Abstract

On 7 May 2026, the Council of the European Union (EU) and the European Parliament reached a provisional political agreement on the Digital Omnibus on Artificial Intelligence (AI), a proposal to amend Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (the EU AI Act) with a view to simplifying the implementation of its harmonised rules on AI. Among its most consequential provisions is a sixteen-month deferral (from 2 August 2026 to 2 December 2027) of the binding obligations the EU AI Act imposes on high-risk AI systems used in asylum determination.
