This can be the case where it is considered that the existing regulatory framework is sufficiently clear and unambiguous.\n\nThe Single Rule Book Q&A tool has been established to provide explanations and non-binding interpretations on questions relating to the practical application or implementation of the provisions of legislative acts referred to in Article 1(2) of the EBA’s founding Regulation, as well as associated delegated and implementing acts, and guidelines and recommendations, adopted under these legislative acts.\n\nFor further information on the purpose of this tool and on how to submit questions, please see “Additional background and guidance for asking questions”.\n\nThe joint ID of this Q&A is DORA094\n\n***\n\n**Source:** [EBA original document](https://www.eba.europa.eu/single-rule-book-qa/qna/view/publicId/2024_7060)\n"}
