(7) Article 27(3) and 27 (6) of Directive 2014/65/EU contains the requirement for execution platforms to publish a list of details relating to best execution. Factual evidence and feedback from stakeholders has shown that those reports are rarely read and do not enable investors or any users of those reports to make meaningful comparisons based on the information provided in those reports. As a consequence, Directive (EU) 2021/338 of the European Parliament and of the Council21 suspended the reporting requirement under Article 27 (3) for two years in order for that requirement to be reviewed. Regulation (EU) XX/XXXX22 has amended Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 to remove the obstacles that have prevented the emergence of a consolidated tape. Among the data that the consolidated tape is expected to provide are post-trade information regarding all transactions in financial instrumentsxed income. That information can be used for proving best execution. The reporting requirement laid down in Article 27(3) and 27 (6) of Directive 2014/65/EU will therefore no longer be relevant and should therefore be deleted. __________________ 21 Directive (EU) 2021/338 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 2021 amending Directive 2014/65/EU as regards information requirements, product governance and position limits, and Directives 2013/36/EU and (EU) 2019/878 as regards their application to investment firms, to help the recovery from the COVID-19 crisis (OJ L 68, 26.2.2021, p. 14). 22 COM 727
