(11) Since the objectives of this Regulation, namely to defer the application of certain provisions of Regulation (EU) 2017/745 and to allow for the extension of the validity of national derogations, authorised under Directives 90/385/EEC or 93/42/EEC, to the territory of the Union, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States but can rather, by reason of its scale and effects, be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union.
S obzirom na to da ciljeve ove Uredbe, odnosno odgodu primjene određenih odredaba Uredbe (EU) 2017/745 i dopuštanje proširenja valjanosti nacionalnih odstupanja odobrenih na temelju Direktive 90/385/EEZ ili Direktive 93/42/EEZ na područje Unije, ne mogu dostatno ostvariti države članice, nego se zbog svojeg opsega i učinaka oni na bolji način mogu ostvariti na razini Unije, Unija može donijeti mjere u skladu s načelom supsidijarnosti utvrđenim u članku 5. Ugovora o Europskoj uniji.
