Justification
Member States establish a single national entry point for the submission of notifications. The simplification sought for reporting entities is achieved through a single national interface, not through the transfer to a Union body of competences exercised at national level. A single Union database of incident notifications would by its very nature constitute a target of the first order and a single point of vulnerability.
