Regulatory Summary
Material changes
Following consultations with our local counsel, we have reviewed and updated the documents to take into account an evolving interpretation of the regulatory framework. We can confirm that there have been no relevant regulatory changes since the last publication of this Country Manual.
Non-material changes
The document has been reformatted onto the latest template. Many answers in the RS have been re-worded, with an additional reference to applicable law/regulation, to provide more clarity and more detailed explanations.
Behaviour Template
The answers in the BT have been aligned to those contained in the RS.
BT Short Comparison
BRP has created a comparison document allowing users to quickly identify the modifications made compared to the previous version of the PB Manual (BT Short Comparison). The BT Short Comparison can be found on BRP’s platform (mybrponline) in the Search tab by entering in the Document Field “CM EAM BT SHORT COMP” and “COUNTRY NAME” in the Target Country Field.
The BT Short Comparison should be read as follows:
The first column contains a short description of the activity in question. The second column contains the answers of the previous version of the Country Manual (online until the day of the alert). The third column contains the new answers of the most recent version of the Country Manual. Only the modified answers are displayed (in color). If the answers in the new version are unchanged compared to the previous version, they are shaded in grey.
Best regards,
