Agree, I don’t understand how a non-judicial branch can attest that Google is not compliant. If they think so, they should sue. Otherwise it sounds as if a minister invested in a local alternative…

Because that’s not how it works in continental Europe. Our system is a lot less litigious and relies on regulation rather than litigation.

ICOs, which are executive and non-judiciary, are responsible for compliance and enforcement. In the same way that if you're polluting, the respective executive agency will fine you and order you to stop. With, of course, you having the option to appeal to the judiciary branch.
