Since the adoption of those Decisions, several Member States have notified the Commission of further amendments. The Commission considers that the amended provisions comply with the conditions set out in Title III, Chapter III of Directive 2005/36/EC. Annex V to Directive 2005/36/EC should therefore be updated.\n(3)\nFor reasons of clarity and legal certainty, all relevant points of Annex V to Directive 2005/36/EC on the evidence of formal qualifications and the titles of training courses should be replaced.\n(4)\nDirective 2005/36/EC should therefore be amended accordingly,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:",
