AddedRecital 2 b (new): (2b) Changes to the guide levels should be based on the principle that products in the new categories under Directive (EU) …/… [OJ: please insert the number of the Directive contained in document 2025/0580(CNS)] serve as alternatives for products already subject to the guide levels under Council Directive (EU) 2020/262. Guide levels for those new categories should therefore be comparable to those of products already subject to the guide levels under Council Directive (EU) 2020/262.
