4.1. Regulation (EC) No 2195/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 November 2002 on the Common Procurement Vocabulary (CPV) (1) U.K.

As regards Regulation (EC) No 2195/2002, the Commission should be empowered in particular to update the structure and codes of the CPV and to make technical adjustments to any of the Annexes to that Regulation in order to provide users with a tool adapted to their needs and to developments in the market. Since those measures are of general scope and are designed to amend non-essential elements of Regulation (EC) No 2195/2002, they must be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny provided for in Article 5a of Decision 1999/468/EC.

When, on imperative grounds of urgency, the normal time-limits for the regulatory procedure with scrutiny cannot be complied with, the Commission should be able to have recourse to the urgency procedure provided for in Article 5a(6) of Decision 1999/468/EC for the adoption of amendments of a purely technical nature.

Accordingly, Articles 2 and 3 of Regulation (EC) No 2195/2002 shall be replaced by the following:

Article 2

The Commission shall adopt the measures necessary for the revision of the CPV. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Regulation, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 3(2). On imperative grounds of urgency, the Commission may have recourse to the urgency procedure referred to in Article 3(3).

Article 3

1.The Commission shall be assisted by the Committee established by Council Decision 71/306/EEC(2).

2.Where reference is made to this paragraph, Article 5a(1) to (4) and Article 7 of Decision 1999/468/EC shall apply, having regard to the provisions of Article 8 thereof.

3.Where reference is made to this paragraph, Article 5a(1), (2), (4) and (6) and Article 7 of Decision 1999/468/EC shall apply, having regard to the provisions of Article 8 thereof..
