Justification

The recital makes reference to the repeal on Platform to Business Regulation. P2B Regulation continues to provide essential safeguards for fairness and transparency in platform-to-business relationships. Its provisions remain complementary to the Union's broader digital regulatory framework and address issues that are not fully covered by other instruments such as the DSA and the DMA. Repealing the Regulation would reduce legal certainty for businesses and could weaken existing protections.

(6) Similarly, with the iterative regulation of online platforms over the past years, more recent rules have established a clearer and more ambitious framework than some of the predating rules, rendering them obsolete. It is therefore necessary that the legal framework evolves, eliminating any unnecessary duplications that add legal complexity. In cases where predating rules have been kept, these should be further assessed and analysed whether they still serve a function or whether they can be withdrawn at a later stage.
