  "text": "1. Where the approval authority has ascertained or has been informed that a technical service no longer complies with the requirements laid down in this Regulation, that approval authority shall restrict, suspend or withdraw the designation, as appropriate, depending on the seriousness of the failure to comply with those requirements.\n...\n2. In the event of a restriction, suspension or withdrawal of the designation, or where the technical service has ceased its activity, the approval authority shall keep the files of that technical service available for the ... market surveillance authority or transfer those files to another technical service chosen by the manufacturer in agreement with that technical service.\n3. The approval authority shall assess within three months of restricting, suspending or withdrawing the designation under paragraph 1 whether the non-compliance of the technical service has an impact on GB type-approval certificates issued on the basis of the inspection and test reports issued by that technical service ....\nWithin two months after having restricted, suspended or withdrawn the designation, the approval authority shall prepare a report on its findings regarding the non-compliance .... Where necessary to ensure the safety of vehicles, systems, components or separate technical units already placed on the market, the ... approval authority shall ... suspend or withdraw within a reasonable period of time, any GB type-approval certificates which were unduly issued.\n4. Where the designation of a technical service has been restricted, suspended or withdrawn, but the approval authority has decided not to suspend or withdraw, in accordance with the second subparagraph of paragraph 3, the GB type-approval certificates which were issued on the basis of inspection and test reports issued by that technical service, those certificates remain valid unless the type-approvals have been invalidated in accordance with point (f) of Article 35(2).\n5. Extensions of the scope of the technical service's designation that lead to the designation of an additional category of activities referred to in Article 68(1) shall be assessed in accordance with the procedure set out in Article 73.\nExtensions of the scope of a technical service's designation only for the regulatory acts listed in Annex II may be carried out in accordance with the procedures laid down in Appendix 2 to Annex III ....\n6. The designation of a technical service shall only be renewed after the approval authority has verified that the technical service continues to comply with the requirements of this Regulation. That assessment shall be carried out in accordance with the procedure set out in Article 73.",
