Recital 20

(20) With a view to ensuring that the procedure for monitoring conformity of production, which is one of the cornerstones of the EU type-approval system, has been correctly implemented and functions properly, manufacturers should be regularly checked by the competent authority or by an appropriately qualified technical service designated for that purpose. The sampling rate for such checks should be proportionate to the production volumes concerned. Member States should ensure that their approval authorities and market surveillance authorities have the necessary resources, such as sufficient budgetary, human and material resources, including a sufficient number of competent personnel, as well as sufficient expertise, procedures and other arrangements in place to exercise the powers that are conferred on them under Article 14 of Regulation (EU) 2019/1020 of the European Parliament and of the Council (11).
