COMMUNICATION FROM THE COMMISSION Commission Guidelines for providers of Very Large Online Platforms and Very Large Online Search Engines on the mitigation of systemic risks for electoral processes pursuant to Article 35(3) of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 · European Union

| 22. | To reinforce internal processes and resources in a particular electoral context, providers of VLOPs and VLOSEs should consider setting up a dedicated, clearly identifiable internal team prior to each individual electoral period (see also section 3.5. ‘During an electoral period’). The resource allocation for that team should be proportionate to the risks identified for the election in question, including being staffed by persons with Member State specific expertise, such as local, contextual and language knowledge. The team should cover all relevant expertise including in areas such as content moderation, fact-checking, threat disruption, hybrid threats, cybersecurity, disinformation and FIMI, fundamental rights and public participation and cooperate with relevant external experts, for example with the European Digital Media Observatory (EDMO) hubs and independent fact-checking organisations (20).
