b Germany: VS = Verschlusssache.
c France does not use the classification “RESTREINT” in its national system. France handles and protects “RESTREINT UE/EU RESTRICTED” information in a manner no less stringent than the standards and procedures described in the security rules of the Council of the European Union.
