Review status: Placed against the official source (8 August 2026). This version is closed off on the time axis and is not placed against the source again. The check date is the knowledge date of this version; no later recheck has been recorded.

Who must act and who is affected

On an obligation the addressee is recorded separately from the party that is merely affected. That difference decides who a supervisory authority addresses and who has work to do without the duty resting on them.

This version predates the relation model. Duty holder and affected actor are not split out here; the actor list is one undifferentiated list. That is not an omission but what was published for that interval.

Duty holder

Not recorded on this object.

Affected actor

What this object links to

Every relation appears below as a path: from the source with its locator, through the conditions and exceptions of the object carrying the relation, to the consequence. A locator belongs to a statement in the data and not to a relation, so the source is the source anchor of the carrying object.
