As soon as it adopts a delegated act, the Commission shall notify it to the Council. 6.

That period shall be extended by 2 months at the initiative of the Council. 7. The European Parliament shall be informed of the adoption of delegated acts by the Commission, of any objection formulated to them, or of the revocation of the delegation of powers by the Council.
