The flowchart included in that Annex erroneously indicated that input categories ‘toxicity and other safety testing required by legislation’ and ‘legislative requirements’ apply only to ‘toxicity and other safety testing including pharmacology’ and not to all other subcategories of ‘regulatory use and routine production by type’. In order to clarify this issue the layout of the flowchart should be changed. To emphasise this further, the title of input category ‘toxicity and other safety testing required by legislation’ should be changed to ‘testing by legislation’. Other minor changes to the layout of the flowchart should be introduced in order to improve clarity.\n(2)\nChanges made to the flowchart should be mirrored in the second part of Annex II to Implementing Decision 2012/707/EU, containing the detailed instructions.\n(3)\nImplementing Decision 2012/707/EU should therefore be corrected accordingly.\n(4)\nThe measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established under Article 56(1) of Directive 2010/63/EU,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:",
