Emendrix checks every change against three independent sources. Where they disagree it says so rather than picking a winner.
MODIFIED +72 −215 Annex I ANNEX I§
applies from: unchanged
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.
For tantalum or niobium ores and concentrates, gold ores and concentrates, tin oxides and hydroxides, tantalates, and carbides of tantalum, the entries that previously stated 'Article 1(4) and Article 18 apply' now show specific numeric volume threshold figures in kilograms instead of that text.
The CN code column headings for these same lines changed from lower-case 'ex' prefixes to capitalized 'Ex' prefixes, while all other entries and figures in Annex I remain the same.
