1. Guidelines will be adopted and published by the Commission as provided in Article 37 of the Regulation. They will provide non-binding orientations and guidance to operators so as to facilitate the application of the Regulation. It is understood that the Guidelines will not create any legal rights or obligations and that the Regulation will remain the binding instrument which will prevail in case of any divergence between the Regulation and the Guidelines. 2. It is understood that by following the Guidelines the operators would ensure that they are in compliance with the provisions of the Regulation addressed by the Guidelines. 3. The Commission will follow the developments in the field of safeguards and monitor the application of the Regulation. On this basis, the Commission may, as appropriate, modify the Guidelines. Prior to the adoption of any modification, the Commission will undertake to consult stakeholders and Member States. In adopting such modifications the Commission will take account of the positions expressed in such consultations. 4. It is understood that the Working Party on Atomic Questions, in a suitable composition, will be the forum for the consultation of Member States.
