Scope of Cooperation 1. The Authorities recognise the importance of close communication concerning the Covered CCPs and intend to cooperate regarding: a) general issues, including with respect to regulatory, supervisory, enforcement or other developments concerning the Covered CCPs and Australia; b) issues relevant to the operations, activities and services of the Covered CCPs; c) the coordination of supervisory activities and, where appropriate and consistent with applicable laws and each Authority’s mandate, providing assistance in the implementation of enforcement decisions; d) any other areas of mutual interest. 2. The Authorities recognise in particular the importance of close cooperation in the event that a Covered CCP, particularly one whose failure likely would be systemically important to an Authority, experiences, or is threatened by, a potential financial crisis or other Emergency Situation. One or both of the Local Authorities should provide notification to ESMA, and ESMA should provide notification to the Local Authorities, consistent with Article 3(4) below and each Authority should keep the other Authorities appropriately informed throughout the Emergency Situation. The Local Authorities should coordinate and lead in an Emergency Situation and should consult with and take account of the views of ESMA to the greatest extent practicable. ESMA should coordinate with the relevant CBI(s) regarding an Emergency Situation of a Covered CCP and any emergency measures that the CBI may consider appropriate. 3.
