Therefore, in ST 13280/22 INIT:

  On page 16, the last sentence of recital 19:

  “All new buildings should be zero-emission buildings, and all existing buildings should be transformed into zero-emission buildings by 2050.” should read: “All new buildings should be zero-emission buildings  by 2030  , and  […]  existing buildings should be transformed into zero-emission buildings by 2050.”

• 2. 

  On page 39, in Article 2, paragraph (5):

  “5. ‘public bodies’ means ‘contracting authorities’ as defined in Article 2(1) of Directive 2014/24 i/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council 1 ;”

  On page 47, in Article 2, paragraph (46):

  “46. ‘reference floor area’ means the floor area used as reference size for the assessment of the energy performance of a building, calculated as the sum of the useful floor areas of the spaces within the building envelope specified for the energy performance assessment;”

  should read:

  “46.  […] ”

1 OJ L 94, 28.3.2014, p. 65.
