Whenever significant new data requirements are identified or insufficient quality of data is to be expected, the Commission will institute pilot studies to be completed on a voluntary basis by the Member States before any data collection.
Kadar koli se ugotovijo pomembne nove potrebe v zvezi s podatki ali vse kaže na nezadostno kakovost podatkov, Komisija pripravi pilotne študije, ki jih prostovoljno izvedejo države članice pred vsakršnim zbiranjem podatkov.
