# Art. 21 — Centralisation of reporting

1. The ESAs, through the [Joint Committee](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/dora/joint-committee), and in consultation with the ECB and ENISA, shall prepare a joint report assessing the feasibility of further centralisation of incident reporting through the establishment of a single EU Hub for [major ICT-related incident](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/dora/major-ict-related-incident) reporting by financial entities. The joint report shall explore ways to facilitate the flow of [ICT-related incident](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/dora/ict-related-incident) reporting, reduce associated costs and underpin thematic analyses with a view to enhancing supervisory convergence.
2. The joint report referred to in paragraph 1 shall comprise at least the following elements:
   1. prerequisites for the establishment of a single EU Hub;
   2. benefits, limitations and risks, including risks associated with the high concentration of sensitive information;
   3. the necessary capability to ensure interoperability with regard to other relevant reporting schemes;
   4. elements of operational management;
   5. conditions of membership;
   6. technical arrangements for financial entities and national competent authorities to access the single EU Hub;
   7. a preliminary assessment of financial costs incurred by setting-up the operational platform supporting the single EU Hub, including the requisite expertise.
3. The ESAs shall submit the report referred to in paragraph 1 to the European Parliament, to the Council and to the Commission by 17 January 2025.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.mica.wtf/dora/digital-operational-resilience-act/chapter-iii-ict-related-incident-classification-reporting/article-21-centralisation-of-reporting.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
