Member States shall ensure that critical entities notify via the single-entry point established pursuant to Article 23a of Directive (EU) 2022/2555 the competent authority, without undue delay, of incidents that significantly disrupt or have the potential to significantly disrupt the provision of essential services. Member States shall ensure that, unless operationally unable to do so, critical entities submit an initial notification no later than 24 hours after becoming aware of an incident, followed, where relevant, by a detailed report no later than one month thereafter. In order to determine the significance of a disruption, the following parameters shall, in particular, be taken into account:

Where an incident has or might have a significant impact on the continuity of the provision of essential services to or in six or more Member States, the competent authorities of the Member States affected by the incident shall notify the Commission of that incident.

(a)

the number and proportion of users affected by the disruption;

(b)

the duration of the disruption;

(c)

the geographical area affected by the disruption, taking into account whether the area is geographically isolated.

2.

Notifications as referred to in paragraph 1, first subparagraph, shall include any available information necessary to enable the competent authority to understand the nature, cause and possible consequences of the incident, including any available information necessary to determine any cross-border impact of the incident. Such notifications shall not subject critical entities to increased liability.

The Commission may adopt implementing acts further specifying the type and format of information notified pursuant to Article 15(1). Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 24(2).

Single points of contact sending and receiving information pursuant to the first subparagraph shall, in accordance with Union or national law, treat that information in a way that respects its confidentiality and protects the security and commercial interest of the critical entity concerned.

4.

As soon as possible following a notification as referred to in paragraph 1, the competent authority concerned shall provide the critical entity concerned with relevant follow-up information, including information that could support that critical entity’s effective response to the incident in question. Member States shall inform the public where they determine that it would be in the public interest to do so.
