Recital 74

(74) In order to amend or supplement certain non-essential elements of this Regulation, the power to adopt acts, in accordance with Article 290 TFEU, should be delegated to the Commission in respect of: (i) specifying further the requirements in relation to documentation accompanying the application; (ii) listing additional items for the accompanying documentation that is to be submitted; (iii) specifying the criteria for the direct registration procedure; (iv) setting out the procedures and conditions applicable to the preparation and submission of applications to the Office; (v) specifying the content of the notice of appeal and the procedure for the submission and the examination of an appeal; (vi) specifying the content and the form of the decisions of the Boards of Appeal; and (vii) modifying the information and requirements in relation to the standard form for the self-declaration. 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 (21). 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.
