Article 6 shall be replaced by the following: ‘Article 6 1. The plan must conform to the sampling levels and frequencies laid down in Annex IV. However, at the request of a Member State the Commission may, in accordance with the regulatory procedure referred to in Article 33(2), adjust for the Member States concerned the minimum control requirements laid down in Annex IV provided that it is clearly established that such adjustments increase the overall effectiveness of the plan in respect of the Member State concerned and in no way reduce its ability to identify residues of, or cases of illegal treatment with, substances listed in Annex I. 2. Re-examination of the groups of residues to be checked for in accordance with Annex II and determination of the sampling levels and frequencies covering the animals and products referred to in Article 3 and not already laid down in Annex IV shall be carried out by the Commission and on the first occasion within a maximum of 18 months of the adoption of this Directive. In doing so, the Commission shall take account of experience gained under existing national measures and of information forwarded to the Commission under existing Community requirements making such specific product groups subject to monitoring for residues. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive, inter alia, by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 33(4).’;
