In order to take into account new developments, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 TFEU should be delegated to the Commission to amend the indicative list of safety components in Annex V to Directive 2006/42/EC. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level, and that those consultations be conducted in accordance with the principles laid down in the Interinstitutional Agreement of 13 April 2016 on Better Law-Making. In particular, to ensure equal participation in the preparation of delegated acts, the European Parliament and the Council receive all documents at the same time as Member States’ experts, and their experts systematically have access to meetings of Commission expert groups dealing with the preparation of delegated acts. In order to ensure uniform conditions for the implementation of Directive 2006/42/EC, implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission concerning necessary measures to deal with potentially hazardous machinery. Those powers should be exercised in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011. Accordingly, Directive 2006/42/EC is amended as follows: in the second paragraph of Article 2, the second subparagraph of point (c) is replaced by the following: ‘An indicative list of safety components is set out in Annex V.’; in Article 8, paragraph 1 is replaced by the following: ‘1. The Commission is empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 21a amending Annex V to update the indicative list of safety components.’; in Article 9(3), the second and third subparagraphs are replaced by the following: ‘Taking due account of the results of that consultation, the Commission shall adopt the necessary measures by implementing acts. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 22(3).’; the following Article is inserted: ‘Article 21a Exercise of the delegation 1. The power to adopt delegated acts is conferred on the Commission subject to the conditions laid down in this Article. 2.

The Commission shall draw up a report in respect of the delegation of power not later than nine months before the end of the five-year period. The delegation of power shall be tacitly extended for periods of an identical duration, unless the European Parliament or the Council opposes such extension not later than three months before the end of each period. 3. The delegation of power referred to in Article 8(1) may be revoked at any time by the European Parliament or by the Council. A decision to revoke shall put an end to the delegation of the power specified in that decision. It shall take effect the day following the publication of the decision in the Official Journal of the European Union or at a later date specified therein. It shall not affect the validity of any delegated acts already in force. 4. Before adopting a delegated act, the Commission shall consult experts designated by each Member State in accordance with the principles laid down in the Interinstitutional Agreement of 13 April 2016 on Better Law-Making OJ L 123, 12.5.2016, p. 1.’; . 5. As soon as it adopts a delegated act, the Commission shall notify it simultaneously to the European Parliament and to the Council. 6. A delegated act adopted pursuant to Article 8(1) shall enter into force only if no objection has been expressed either by the European Parliament or the Council within a period of three months of notification of that act to the European Parliament and the Council or if, before the expiry of that period, the European Parliament and the Council have both informed the Commission that they will not object. That period shall be extended by two months at the initiative of the European Parliament or of the Council. in Article 22, paragraph 3 is replaced by the following: ‘3. Where reference is made to this paragraph, Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 2011 laying down the rules and general principles concerning mechanisms for control by Member States of the Commission’s exercise of implementing powers (OJ L 55, 28.2.2011, p. 13).’. shall apply.
