Paragraph 4 no longer states that the fundamental rights impact assessment shall complement an existing data protection impact assessment; instead it now describes the deployer as able to include cross-references to relevant sections of that data protection impact assessment, or to include relevant parts of it, within the fundamental rights impact assessment.
Paragraph 5 adds a sentence stating that the questionnaire template developed by the AI Office shall, where relevant, give deployers the possibility to include such cross-references or relevant parts of the data protection impact assessment, referring back to paragraph 4.
