Sources disagree — the text comparison and the EU's own amendment metadata found this change; the amending act's instructions do not mention it. All are shown; none is overruled.
In point (c), the phrase covering conformity assessment and market surveillance has been shortened to refer only to conformity assessment, dropping the reference to market surveillance.
In point (f), the list of activities linked to Community legislation no longer includes market surveillance among the named fields, and the closing reference to European market surveillance campaigns and similar activities has been removed.
In point (g), the reference to promotion and enhancement of policies and systems no longer mentions market surveillance, listing only conformity assessment and accreditation.
