   ▸ AIAI: What changed Written by AI from the official text — check the source

   The new version broadens national defence exemptions in chemicals rules and drops detailed provisions on dual-use production lines, temporary repurposing, review and guidelines. It adds European Defence Fund provisions on multiannual work programmes, disruptive technologies, SME actions, indirect management, testing in Ukraine, access rights and call-by-call award criteria. It raises the maximum additional funding rate for activities allocated to SMEs from 5 to 10 percentage points and drops simplified reporting requirements for SMEs. It changes the provision on transfers and export policy to refer to endeavouring to use all tools at Member States' disposal and avoiding disproportionate administrative requirements. The other changes are formal or wording: updated headings, citations, cross-references, footnotes and rephrased provisions.
