Recital 67

(67) The action of the Union following its accession to the Geneva Act is governed by Regulation (EU) 2019/1753 of the European Parliament and of the Council (20). Certain provisions of that Regulation should be amended to ensure coherence in relation to the establishment of a Union system for the protection of geographical indications for craft and industrial products, in accordance with this Regulation. In this context, the Office should act as the Union’s competent authority in respect of geographical indications for craft and industrial products under the Geneva Act. Provisions of Regulation (EU) 2019/1753 applicable to geographical indications falling outside the scope of the Union law governing the system for the protection of geographical indications for agricultural products should, therefore, be amended so that they are aligned with this Regulation.
