Article 6(1a) to (1c): the tightened classification route

The Digital Omnibus inserts three paragraphs into Article 6 that draw the notion of safety component more tightly: which AI systems do not qualify as safety components, which still do despite that exclusion because failure would endanger health and safety, and which mandatory third-party conformity assessment does not count. Paragraph 1a is written for the purposes of the Regulation as a whole and therefore bears on both the Annex I route and Annex III, point 2.
