Mechanisms in the laws or the institutions? The difference is very important and many people, who agree with the intent of the law, have been pointing out this difference for a while now. Scribbles don't make something so. If the approach of just writing it down didn't work before, why just change words instead of approaches?

Both, if I understood what you mean: The GDPR regulation ((EU) 2016/679) contains provisions for legal enforcement, and describes which process and agencies are responsible for that.

Whether this actually works, only time can tell. But the fact that similar previous legislations went unenforced was a specific concern that the designers of the GDPR intended to address.
