                     The European Assessment Documents drawn up and adopted by the organisation of Technical Assessment Bodies satisfy the demands to be met in relation to the basic requirements for construction works set out in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 305/2011. It is therefore appropriate to publish the references of those European Assessment Documents in the Official Journal of the European Union.
                  
               
                     (5)
                  
                  
                     The list of references of European Assessment Documents is published by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/450 (2). For reasons of clarity, references of new European Assessment Documents should be added to that list.
                  
               
                     (6)
                  
                  
                     Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/450 should therefore be amended accordingly.
                  
               
                     (7)
                  
                  
                     In order to enable the use of the European Assessment Documents as early as possible, this Decision should enter into force on the day of its publication.
                  
               HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
         
            Article 1
            The Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/450 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Decision.
