Translations:Critical Entities‘ Resilience Directive (CER)/15/en

Articles 11 CER-D and Chapters III (Art 12-16 CER-D), IV (Art 17-18 CER-D), and VI (Art 21-22 CER-D) do not apply to certain critical entities in the **banking**, **financial market infrastructures**, and **digital infrastructure** sectors, although Member States may enact or maintain national regulations (Art 8 CER-D).

Note:
The RKEG (Critical Entities Resilience Act) does **not** apply to the judiciary or legislative branches, nor to the Austrian National Bank (§ 1 para 3 RKEG-Draft).

To avoid overlaps, the provisions of the CER-D do not apply if critical entities are required to take measures to improve their resilience under the provisions of sector-specific Union legal acts, and these requirements are **recognized by the Member States as at least equivalent** to the corresponding obligations under this Directive (Art 1 para 3 CER-D).
