Article 14a

Harmonised application of the NIS2 Directive

To ensure a consistent and proportionate application of Directive (EU) 2022/2555 across the Union, The Commission shall, in cooperation with the Cooperation Group referred to in Article 14 of this Directive and ENISA, issue guidance on the harmonised interpretation and application of key obligations under that Directive. Such guidance shall, in particular, address:

(a)the classification of entities as essential or important entities, including the avoidance of additional or diverging national categorisations beyond those provided for in Directive (EU) 2022/2555;

(b)the conditions under which cybersecurity audits, assessments or equivalent supervisory measures may be required, including their frequency and scope;

(c)registration, notification, and reporting obligations applicable to entities operating in more than one Member State and;

(d)the application of proportionality in supervisory and enforcement practices

Member States shall take utmost account of such guidance when implementing and applying Directive (EU) 2022/2555 and shall refrain from introducing additional obligations that would undermine the uniform application of Union law.
