1In addition to those procedural and fundamental rights safeguards the procedural rights provided for in Article 18 of Regulation (EU) 2019/1020 should apply mutatis mutandis to providers of AI systems, without prejudice to more specific procedural rights provided for in Regulation (EU) 2024/1689. 2When national market surveillance authorities, through the single point of contact, request that the AI Office takes supervisory and enforcement measures with regards to AI systems under its exclusive supervision, the AI Office should no later than four months following the receipt of that request, inform the single point of contact of its intention to exercise its supervisory and enforcement powers or of its reasons for not exercising its powers. 3If the AI Office decides to exercise its supervisory and enforcement powers, it should also inform the single point of contact about the final outcome of such proceedings and of intermediate developments that the AI Office considers as having a major impact in the investigation, including the decision to open proceedings, to impose a fine, and to withdraw or recall the AI system from the market.
