Amendment 90 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 10 a (new)
(10a) In order to ensure their uniform application by competent authorities, controls should be based primarily on risk analysis, with the purpose of identifying and evaluating the risks and developing the necessary counter-measures, and should be performed within a common risk management framework, as defined in Regulation 952/2013, which shall take into account the analysis carried out under articles 6 and 7 of Directive 2015/849. The Commission should be empowered to adopt, by means of delegated acts, the definition of the criteria of this common risk management framework. The establishment of a risk management framework common to all Member States should not prevent them from carrying out controls by random checks.
