In line with the Union’s efforts to enhance its preparedness for and resilience against crises, the list of Union crisis or emergency mechanisms capable of triggering a Union compulsory licence should be kept up to date. To that end, the Commission should assess that list on a regular basis, in particular by taking into consideration new legislative acts or proposals, as well as the general objective of enhancing the Union’s preparedness for and resilience against crises. The assessments should be carried out having particular regard to semiconductors for medical equipment. Where appropriate, the Commission should be able to propose amendments to the Annex, in order to adapt the list of Union crisis or emergency mechanisms. The Commission should report on its assessments to the European Parliament and to the Council, including on any legislative proposals for amending the Annex.
