         (Text with EEA relevance)
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Directive 2009/138/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2009 on the taking up and pursuit of the business of Insurance and Reinsurance (Solvency II) (1), and in particular Article 56 thereof,
         Whereas:
         
                     (1)
                  
                  
                     Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/981 (2) has amended Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/35 (3) to introduce further principles on deferred taxes to ensure a level playing field in the Union. Certain templates laid down in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2452 (4) should be adapted taking into account those amendments.
                  
               
                     (2)
                  
                  
                     Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2452 should therefore be amended accordingly.

The amendments provided for in this Regulation are made to incorporate those requirements into the relevant templates laid down in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2452. Therefore, this Regulation should apply from the same date.
                  
               
                     (4)
