Recital (5)

Article 26a(3), second subparagraph, of Directive 2006/43/EC empowers the Commission to adopt reasonable assurance standards by 1 October 2028, following an assessment of feasibility for auditors and for undertakings. To avoid an increase in the costs of assurance for undertakings, the requirement to adopt reasonable assurance standards should be removed.
