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

   The decision on discharge is postponed, and several new calls and requests are added on missions, AI resources, complaint handling, and transparency. New paragraphs address IT staffing and open-source cloud solutions, while existing paragraphs add calls for balanced recruitment, anti-fraud measures, and EMAS timeline. Changes to wording on Russia's war and inspection details, plus additions on legal action and consultation with audited entities. Other changes are formal: renumbering, typo corrections, and terminology alignment.
