Tests which are in conformity with harmonised standards, the references of which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union, are presumed to be reliable and reproducible to the extent that the tests are covered by those standards. (2) By Commission Implementing Decision C(2020) 612(3), the Commission made a request to the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) for the drafting of harmonised standards in support of Regulation (EU) 2019/1009.

(5) The harmonised standard satisfies the requirements which it aims to cover and which are set out in Regulation (EU) 2019/1009. It is therefore appropriate to publish the reference of that standard in the Official Journal of the European Union.
