(3)The exercise of the discretion to require credit institutions to use international accounting standards as applicable under Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 for supervisory reporting pursuant to Article 24(2) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 is outside the subject matter of this Regulation. Having regard to Article 150 of Regulation (EU) No 468/2014 (ECB/2014/17), previous decisions by NCAs concerning the exercise, or non-exercise, of this discretion should remain unaffected.
