1Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 lays down horizontal rules for AI systems to ensure a consistent and high level of protection of public interests as regards health safety and fundamental rights. 2For high-risk AI systems referred to in Article 6(1), that Regulation applies in conjunction with the Union harmonisation legislation listed in Section A of Annex I. 3In certain cases, it is possible for such Union harmonisation legislation to lay down requirements that achieve the same or a higher level of protection of relevant public interests as achieved by the specific requirements or obligations laid down in Regulation (EU) 2024/1689. 4In that case, it should be possible to limit the application of specific requirements or obligations laid down in Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 in order to facilitate compliance, minimise administrative burden and duplications, while preserving the level of protection ensured by that Regulation. 5Such limitation should be possible where, and to the extent that, the Union harmonisation legislation listed in Section A of Annex I lays down requirements providing for an equivalent level of protection of health, safety or fundamental rights as the requirement or obligation concerned. 6The Commission should be empowered to adopt delegated acts to supplement that Regulation by identifying such cases and specifying the products concerned, the requirements or obligations that may be limited, and the conditions and scope of any limitation, ensuring that the level of protection provided by Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 is not reduced.
