Hver medlemsstat sikrer, at dens kompetente myndighed jævnligt udveksler viden, oplysninger og erfaringer med andre kompetente myndigheder bl.a. gennem Den Europæiske Unions Myndighedsgruppe for Offshore Olie- og Gasaktiviteter (EUOAG), og at den deltager i høringer om anvendelsen af relevant national lovgivning og EU-lovgivning med industrien, andre interesseparter og Kommissionen.
Each Member State shall ensure that its competent authority regularly exchanges knowledge, information and experience with other competent authorities, inter alia, through the European Union Offshore Oil and Gas Authorities Group (EUOAG), and that it engages in consultations on the application of relevant national and Union law with the industry, other stakeholders and the Commission.
