Recital 19
(19) When designing the JITs collaboration platform, eu-LISA should ensure technical interoperability with SIENAIn order to ensure the widest possible participation of the relevant actors in the Union and to avoid duplication of the use of data in different systems, eu-LISA should establish the necessary technical standards when designing the JITs collaboration platform, for which Europol should ensure that SIENA complies with those technical standards and is able to establish secure channels to interact with the envisaged platform. This interaction should respect the foreseen access rights and data classification rules established for the two systems. The Commission should ensure that the legislative financial statement annexed to the proposal for this Regulation reflects the budgetary impact of this requirement on both agencies.

Recital 36
(36) The Commission should determine the date of the start of operations of the JITs collaboration platform once it is satisfied that the technical requirements as adopted in the relevant implementing acts necessary for the technical development of the JITs collaboration platform have been adopimplemented and eu- LISA has carried out a comprehensive testrial period of the JITs collaboration platform, in cooperation with the Member States. Upon the adoption of this Regulation, eu- LISA shall immediately start its activities regarding the design and implementation of the JITs collaboration platform with a view to render the project operational as soon as possible, and not later than 1 January 2025, including by making use of tailored and customised off-the-shelf products. Acknowledging that this puts a strain on eu-LISA’s operations, the Commission should ensure that the budgetary impact related to a shorter implementation period than foreseen in the impact assessment requested from eu- LISA is assessed in close cooperation with eu-LISA both from budgetary and human resources point of view and reflected in the legislative financial statement of the proposal for this Regulation prior to the adoption of this Regulation. Furthermore, the legislative financial statement of the proposal for this Regulation should allow eu-LISA to recruit technical staff necessary for the preparation of necessary contracts, organisation of the project, and the technical design of the platform as soon as soon as possible.
