Recital 14

(14) Member States should communicate their strategies and substantial updates thereto to the Commission, in particular to enable the Commission to assess the correct application of this Directive as regards policy approaches to the resilience of critical entities at national level. Where necessary, the strategies could be communicated as classified information. The Commission should draw up a summary report of the strategies communicated by Member States to serve as a basis for exchanges to identify best practices and issues of common interest in the framework of a Critical Entities Resilience Group. Due to the sensitive nature of the aggregated information included in the summary report, whether classified or not, the Commission should manage the summary report with the appropriate level of awareness with respect for the security of critical entities, Member States and the Union. The summary report and the strategies should be safeguarded against unlawful or malicious action and should be accessible only to authorised persons in order to fulfil the objectives of this Directive. The communication of the strategies and substantial updates thereto should also help the Commission to understand developments in approaches to the resilience of critical entities and feed into the monitoring of the impact and added value of this Directive, which the Commission is to review periodically.
