art_37__para_1

1. When requiring manufacturers, their authorised representatives or importers to make available to the Commission information on the quantities of a product pursuant to Article 4(6), point (b), the Commission shall take into account the following criteria: the availability of evidence concerning the market penetration of the relevant product and which is necessary to facilitate the review of delegated acts adopted pursuant to Article 4 applicable to that product; the need to avoid a disproportionate administrative burden for economic operators, in particular for SMEs; and the usefulness of the information required and the proportionality of that requirement. The Commission shall specify the period to which the information referred to in the first subparagraph is to relate. That information shall be differentiated per product model. The Commission shall specify the means through which the relevant information is to be made available and how frequently such information is to be made available. The Commission shall ensure that the information made available is processed securely and in compliance with Union law.
