Text proposed by the Commission2.5. The Union spacecraft operator in charge of a manoeuvrable spacecraft shall provide a contact point available to respond:	Amendment2.5. The Union spacecraft operator in charge of a manoeuvrable spacecraft shall provide a contact point available to respond within two hours, on a 24-hour/7days-a-week basis.

Or. en

Justification

Replacing the tiered 8-hour (LEO) / 24-hour (MEO/GEO) response windows with a single 2-hour, 24h/7-day standard provides a clearer, operationally effective contact point requirement. The tiered approach creates uncertainty for spacecraft in transition between orbital regimes and an 8-hour response time is operationally insufficient for high-interest conjunction events, which can require immediate decision-making by the spacecraft operator.

Annex V – point 4 a (new)

Amendment: Text proposed by the Commission and Amendment
Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment
Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment4 a. 1. Spacecraft operators procuring active debris removal services pursuant to Article 70a shall use only service providers that have demonstrated to the Agency, or to a qualified technical body acting pursuant to Article 111, their capability to rendezvous with and de-orbit uncooperative objects in the relevant orbital regime and that hold adequate insurance coverage for the removal mission as determined by the Agency on the basis of the mission risk profile.
Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment2. The removal mission shall achieve one of the following disposal outcomes, chosen in the following order of preference based on technical feasibility: (a) atmospheric re-entry with an on-ground casualty risk not exceeding the threshold in point 1.3; (b) transfer to a disposal orbit complying with point 3.3, point 3.6 or point 3.7, as applicable.
Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment3. The spacecraft operator shall verify completion on the basis of tracking data from the SST sub-component referred to in Article 58(2) of Regulation (EU) 2021/696 and shall notify the Agency within 30 days of completion.

Or. en

Justification

Point 5 adds the technical floor without which Article 70a is unenforceable. Three requirements only: who can provide the service, what the mission must achieve, and how completion is verified. Disposal outcomes are anchored in the existing Annex V hierarchy — re-entry against point 1.3, graveyard orbit against points 3.3, 3.6 or 3.7 — so no new disposal category is created. Verification uses the Union SST infrastructure already operational under Regulation (EU) 2021/696, making the obligation self-executing from day one.

Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment
Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment(c b) the spacecraft operator shall demonstrate the robustness of the collision avoidance architecture against common-mode failures, including failures affecting spacecraft sharing the same design, components or software versions;

Or. en

Justification

Common-mode failure robustness of the CA architecture — demonstrated resilience against failures affecting spacecraft sharing common software or hardware — is the Annex VI implementation of the principle in Article 73 §2(dh). A CA architecture that fails system-wide when a common software component fails does not provide the continuous conjunction risk management that mega-constellation operation requires.

Justification

Continuous-basis conjunction coordination capability — the Annex VI operationalisation of the 24h/7-day contact point obligation in Annex IV §2.5 (as revised). Conjunction warnings for a mega-constellation arrive continuously; the operator's CA process must be able to receive, assess and respond to them at any time.

Annex VI – point 2 – point 2.2 – point d a (new)

Amendment: Text proposed by the Commission and Amendment
Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment
Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment(d a) the report referred to in point (b) shall also compare the number of conjunction warnings, close approaches, collision avoidance manoeuvres, failed spacecraft and disposal failures actually observed with the figures estimated at the time of authorisation;

Or. en

Justification

The annual operational performance report must include comparative data against the estimates provided at authorisation: conjunction warnings, close approaches, CA manoeuvres executed, failed spacecraft, disposal failures. Comparison against authorisation-time estimates is the trigger for the corrective measures obligation in point (db): the Agency can identify, in real time, whether a constellation is performing worse than authorised.

Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment(d b) where the figures referred to in point (da) materially exceed those estimated at the time of authorisation, the Union spacecraft operator shall submit corrective measures to the Agency, including, where necessary, changes to deployment pace, orbital configuration, manoeuvre strategy or spacecraft design;

Or. en

Justification

Where operational performance materially exceeds authorisation-time estimates, the operator must submit corrective measures to the Agency. This closes the supervision loop: authorisation is not a one-time approval but a continuous compliance obligation calibrated to the operator's own design commitments. An operator whose constellation generates twice as many conjunction alerts as predicted must explain why and propose corrections.

Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment(d c) for mega-constellations deployed in phases, the Union spacecraft operator shall, before each major additional deployment phase, update the analysis of orbital congestion, conjunctions, manoeuvre needs and disposal feasibility on the basis of operational data already collected;

Or. en

Justification

An updated orbital congestion analysis and conjunction frequency estimate is required before each major additional deployment phase. The conditions of the orbital environment change as a constellation grows: authorisation-time analysis conducted before first launch may be materially outdated by the time the operator reaches later deployment phases. Pre-deployment updates ensure that each additional phase is assessed against current orbital conditions.
