Changes between two versions
What changed between the adopted text of 17 Oct 2023 and the adopted text of 27 Feb 2024
These two texts have too little in common to compare paragraph by paragraph: they are different documents rather than versions of one (for example one group’s motion and the joint text that was adopted).
