Article 30 (2) DORA applies to all contractual arrangements on the use of ICT services regardless of whether the ICT service in question supports a critical or important function. Therefore, according to lit. a of Article 30 (2) DORA, these contracts must include an indication whether subcontracting of an ICT service supporting a critical or important function, or material parts thereof, is permitted and, if applicable, the conditions of such subcontracting. Consequently, contracts on the use of ICT services that do not support a critical or important function must also include such an indication.

This question has been rejected because no issue of practical implementation has been identified.
