102Since Article 7(2) of the Directive merely enables specific sets of domestic or agreement-based rules to continue to apply, where they are consistent with the aim of the Directive as set out in the third recital in its preamble and recalled in paragraph 45 of the present judgment, the insertion of Article 7(2) into the text of the Directive must be regarded as a technical adjustment and does not constitute a substantial change requiring consultation of the Parliament and the Economic and Social Committee for a second time.
