Article 6 Additional exceptions to the principle of mandatory acceptance of euro banknotes and coins of a monetary law nature

The Commission is empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 10 to supplement this Regulation by identifying additional exceptions of a monetary law nature to the principle of mandatory acceptance. Those exceptions shall be justified by an objective of public interest and proportionate to that aim, shall not undermine the effectiveness of the legal tender status of euro cash, and shall only be permitted provided that other means for the payment of monetary debts are available. When preparing those delegated acts, the Commission shall consult the European Central Bank.
