(fra kommisjonsbeslutningen)

(1) Annex V to Directive 2005/36/EC contains lists with the evidence of formal qualifications of doctors of medicine, specialist doctors, nurses responsible for general care, dental practitioners, specialist dental practitioners, veterinary surgeons, midwives, pharmacists and architects. 

(2) Article 21a(1) of that Directive requires Member States to notify the Commission of any legislative, regulatory and administrative provisions that Member States adopt for issuing evidence of formal qualifications benefiting from automatic recognition. The Commission then evaluates these submissions against agreed minimum training requirements. 

(3) Several Member States have notified the Commission of legislative, regulatory and administrative provisions that Member States have adopted for issuing evidence of formal qualifications covered by Chapter III of Title III of Directive 2005/36/EC. 

(4) The Commission has assessed the notifications from Member States and concluded that provisions notified by Member States comply with the conditions set out in Articles 24, 25, 28, 31, 34, 35, 38, 40, 41, 44 and 46 of Directive 2005/36/EC. The outcome of the assessment of those notifications is reflected in this Decision, in the amendments to Annex V to Directive 2005/36/EC. 

(5) Annex V to Directive 2005/36/EC should therefore be amended. For reasons of clarity and legal certainty, all relevant points of Annex V to Directive 2005/36/EC on the evidence of formal qualifications and titles of training courses should be replaced. 

(6) Directive 2005/36/EC should therefore be amended accordingly,
