Authorisations and adjustments under Article 6:What you need to know, and what is still unknown
22 Feb 2022

It is intended to provide attendees with a better understanding of when an authorisation will be needed, the preconditions for a host country providing a letter of authorisation, and how and when this will then be translated into a corresponding adjustment.
