Article 36 is amended as follows: in paragraph 1, the first subparagraph is replaced by the following: ‘Without prejudice to Article 8 of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, a trading venue shall, upon request, provide trade feeds on a non-discriminatory and transparent basis, including as regards fees relating to access, to any CCP authorised or recognised pursuant to that Regulation that wishes to clear transactions in financial instruments that are concluded on that trading venue. That requirement shall not apply to: any derivative contract that is already subject to the access obligations laid down in Article 8 of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012; exchange-traded derivatives.’; paragraph 3 is replaced by the following: ‘3. The trading venue shall provide a written response to the CCP within three months of receiving the request referred to in paragraph 2, either permitting access, provided that the relevant competent authority has granted access pursuant to paragraph 4, or denying access. The trading venue may deny a request for access subject to the conditions laid down in paragraph 6, point (a). Where a trading venue denies access, it shall provide full reasons in its response and inform its competent authority of the decision in writing. Where the CCP is established in a Member State other than that of the trading venue, the trading venue shall also forward that written response to the competent authority of the CCP. The trading venue shall provide access within three months of providing a positive response to the access request.’ ; paragraph 4 is amended as follows: the first subparagraph is replaced by the following: ‘The competent authority of the trading venue or that of the CCP shall grant a CCP access to a trading venue provided that such access would not threaten the smooth and orderly functioning of the markets, in particular due to liquidity fragmentation, and provided that the trading venue has put in place adequate arrangements to prevent such fragmentation, or would not adversely affect systemic risk.’; the second and third subparagraphs are deleted; paragraph 5 is deleted; in paragraph 6, first subparagraph, point (d) is deleted.
