The heading changed from 'Independence' to 'Independence of the Management Board'.
In the first paragraph, the reference to instructions from 'any government of a Member State' was changed to 'any government', removing the qualifier tying it to a Member State.
The second paragraph's wording was rephrased from 'Neither Member States, the Union institutions or bodies, nor any other public or private body shall seek to influence' to 'Member States, Union institutions or bodies and any other public or private body shall not seek to influence', with no other substantive change to that sentence.
