In paragraph 3(b), for “point (a)(i) or (ii)” substitute “ point (a) ”. In paragraph 6, for point (b) substitute— the Treasury consider that the benchmark satisfies one or more of conditions (a), (b), (c) or (d) of paragraph 1 of Article 20. In Article 20(1) of the Benchmarks Regulation (critical benchmarks: conditions and other matters)— in the opening words of point (c), for “all” substitute “ both ”, omit point (c)(i), and after point (c) insert— the benchmark has a sufficient number of appropriate market-led substitutes that it does not fulfil the criterion in point (c)(ii), but: it is not reasonably practicable for one or more users of the benchmark to switch to one of those substitutes, and the benchmark fulfils the criterion in point (c)(iii).
