Article 4(2)(d) shall be replaced by the following: ‘(d) participation in European sample schemes coordinated by Eurostat in order to produce European estimates. The details of the schemes referred to in the first subparagraph shall be as specified in the Annexes. Measures for their approval and implementation shall be adopted by the Commission. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Regulation, inter alia, by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 18(3). European sample schemes shall be established when national sample schemes do not meet the European requirements. Furthermore, Member States may opt to take part in European sample schemes when such schemes create possibilities for substantial reductions in the cost of the statistical system or the burden on business which meeting the European requirements entails. Participation in a European sample scheme shall satisfy the conditions of a Member State for the supply of the variable concerned in accordance with the objective of such a scheme. European sample schemes may target the conditions, the level of detail and the deadlines for data transmission.’;
