"This notwithstanding, the co-legislator deemed it necessary, in the light of developments, to address one particular aspect of regulatory flexibility by amending the current recital in the Directive dealing with functional internet access. In particular, the new recital seeks to allow Member States to define nationally the minimum data rates of the connection 'which are sufficient to permit functional internet access […] taking due account of specific circumstances in national markets, for instance the prevailing bandwidth used by the majority of subscribers in that Member State, and technological feasibility, provided that these measures seek to minimize market distortion.'
However, this amendment sets out a new principle only in a recital of the Amending Directive without corresponding changes in the body of the legislative text, which gives rise to questions of interpretation and which might affect legal certainty." (Hervorhebung hinzugefügt)
