Guideline 26

References may have to be adapted when the text referred to has been modified.

26.1.	It may be necessary for a reference to be adapted where: the provision referred to has been deleted and replaced by a new text; an amendment to the provision referred to has unintended repercussions on the provision to which the reference was made; the provision referred to has been redesignated.
26.2.	A provision that is the object of a static reference may be subsequently amended. In this case, if the intent is for the static reference to address the newly amended version of that provision, the static reference must be modified explicitly.
26.3.	For a generalised adaptation, a simple correlation provision is sufficient, but in some cases it may be appropriate to set out a correlation table in an annex.
