(a) submit reliable information substantiating their claims ensuring that all requirements set out in Articles 4 and 5 have been duly fulfilled;

(b) arrange for an adequate standard of independent auditing of the information submitted and an adequate level of transparency reflecting the need for public scrutiny of the auditing approach; and

(c) provide evidence that audits are conducted.

2. The auditing shall verify that information submitted by economic operators is accurate, reliable and protected against fraud.

3. In order to demonstrate that a consignment is to be considered as a low indirect land-use change-risk biofuel, bioliquid or biomass fuel, economic operators shall use the mass balance system set out in Article 30(1) of Directive (EU) 2018/2001.
