Artikel 40 Översyn


Summary What does Article 40 of the NIS 2 directive say?

This is a review clause that places an obligation on the Commission to periodically assess how the Directive is functioning in practice.

The focus of the review is notably specific: rather than a general health-check, it targets whether the scoping criteria — entity size, sectors, subsectors, and types of entity — remain appropriate for the economy and society from a cybersecurity perspective.

To inform this assessment, the Commission must draw on the outputs of the Cooperation Group and the CSIRTs network, connecting this article directly to those cooperative bodies established elsewhere in the Directive.

Important points:

  • The Commission is required to conduct a review by 17 October 2027 and every 36 months after that, reporting to the European Parliament and the Council.
  • The review must specifically assess whether the size thresholds and sectoral scope set out in Annexes I and II remain fit for purpose in relation to cybersecurity.
  • The report may be accompanied by a legislative proposal, meaning the Directive's scope could be revised as a result of the review.

Springlex's summary of the article, a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.

Senast den 17 oktober 2027 och därefter var 36:e månad ska kommissionen se över hur detta direktiv fungerar och rapportera resultatet till Europaparlamentet och rådet. Rapporten ska särskilt bedöma relevansen av de berörda enheternas storlek och sektorer, delsektorer och typer när det gäller den entitet som avses i bilagorna I och II för ekonomins och samhällets funktion när det gäller cybersäkerhet. För detta ändamål och för att ytterligare främja det strategiska och operativa samarbetet ska kommissionen beakta rapporterna från samarbetsgruppen och CSIRT-nätverket om de erfarenheter som förvärvats på strategisk och operativ nivå. Rapporten ska vid behov åtföljas av ett lagstiftningsförslag.
