(3)

Regulation (EC) No 451/2008 should therefore be corrected accordingly.

(4)

In order to ensure consistency, as regards data referred to in Annex B to Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3), the date of application of this Regulation should be aligned with the date of application of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2024/3103,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The Annex to Regulation (EC) No 451/2008 is corrected as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
