Article 6 (4)<br />
Where the significant changes concern a structural subsystem that needs an authorisation <strong>for</strong><br />
placing in service as referred to in Article 15(1) or Article 20 <strong>of</strong> Directive 2008/57/EC, the safety<br />
authority may act as the assessment body unless the proposer already gave that task to a<br />
notified body in accordance with Article 18(2) <strong>of</strong> that Directive.<br />
[G 1] Additional explanation is not judged necessary.<br />
Article 7. Safety assessment reports<br />
Article 7 (1)<br />
The assessment body shall provide the proposer with a safety assessment report.<br />
[G 1] Additional explanation is not judged necessary.<br />
Article 7 (2)<br />
In the case referred to in point (a) <strong>of</strong> Article 5(1), the safety assessment report shall be taken into<br />
account by the national safety authority in its decision to authorise the placing in service <strong>of</strong><br />
subsystems and vehicles.<br />
[G 1] Additional explanation is not judged necessary.<br />
Article 7 (3)<br />
In the case referred to in point (b) <strong>of</strong> Article 5(1), the independent assessment shall be part <strong>of</strong> the<br />
task <strong>of</strong> the notified body, unless otherwise prescribed by the TSI.<br />
If the independent assessment is not part <strong>of</strong> the task <strong>of</strong> the notified body, the safety assessment<br />
report shall be taken into account by the notified body in charge <strong>of</strong> delivering the con<strong>for</strong>mity<br />
certificate or by the contracting entity in charge <strong>of</strong> drawing up the EC declaration <strong>of</strong> verification.<br />
[G 1] Additional explanation is not judged necessary.<br />
Article 7 (4)<br />
When a system or part <strong>of</strong> a system has already been accepted following the risk management<br />
process specified in this Regulation, the resulting safety assessment report shall not be called<br />
into question by any other assessment body in charge <strong>of</strong> per<strong>for</strong>ming a new assessment <strong>for</strong> the<br />
same system. The recognition shall be conditional on demonstration that the system will be used<br />
under the same functional, operational and environmental conditions as the already accepted<br />
system, and that equivalent risk acceptance criteria have been applied.<br />
[G 1] This mutual recognition principle is already accepted by the CENELEC standards: see<br />
section § 5.5.2 in EN 50 129 and section § 5.9 in EN 50 126-2. In CENELEC, the crossacceptance<br />
or mutual recognition principle is applied by proposers or independent safety<br />
