Each Member State must, within six months after date of application of the amendment to the Regulation or within six months after deadline of transposition of the amendment to the Directive, notify the Commission of the outcome of its assessment with an accompanying explanation and, if necessary, submit a request for amendment of its CAP Strategic Plan in accordance with Article 119(2) SPR. The Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry (‘LULUCF’) Regulation (EU) 2018/841 and the Effort Sharing Regulation (‘ESR’) (EU) 2018/842 are legislative acts listed in Annex XIII to SPR. As part of the Fit-for-55 package, these Regulations have been amended to reflect the increased EU climate ambition. The regulations amending these legislative acts have been published on 21 and 26 April 20231, respectively and they each enter into force on the twentieth day after the publication. Therefore, Member States must assess if the ambition set out in the amended LULUCF Regulation and amended ESR could adequately be addressed by the approved CAP Strategic Plans or whether the CAP Strategic Plans should be amended. 1 Regulation (EU) 2023/839), OJ L 107, 21.4.2023, p. 1–28 and Regulation (EU) 2023/857, OJ L 111, 26.4.2023, p. 1.
