A new paragraph 2a was added stating that from 1 January 2023, an area equivalent to that covered by planting rights eligible for conversion into planting authorisations on 31 December 2022 but not yet converted under paragraph 1 remains at the disposal of the Member States concerned, which may grant authorisations under Article 64 at the latest by 31 December 2025.
Paragraph 3 was amended so that the areas excluded from the count under Article 63 now include those covered by authorisations granted under both paragraph 1 and the newly added paragraph 2a, rather than only paragraph 1 as before.
From 1 January 2023, an area equivalent to the area covered by planting rights that were eligible for conversion into planting authorisations on 31 December 2022 but have not yet been converted into authorisations in accordance to paragraph 1, shall remain at the disposal of the Member States concerned, which may grant authorisations in accordance with Article 64 at the latest by 31 December 2025.
