Those requirements and standards are provided for in the international instruments referred to in Directive 2014/90/EU.

 

(2)

In order to take into account the most recent changes, the list of the applicable international instruments should be regularly updated. In order to provide a comprehensive list containing all products belonging to the scope of Directive 2014/90/EU, Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/773 (2) should be repealed.

 

(3)

Marine equipment newly subject to harmonised Union requirements under Directive 2014/90/EU should be explicitly listed as new items in column 1 of the Annex to this Regulation.

(5)

In order to facilitate a harmonised, rapid and simple implementation of Directive 2014/90/EU, implementing acts adopted pursuant to that Directive should take the form of Implementing Regulations.
