Without prejudice to Article 36, EBA, ESMA and EIOPA may, in accordance with Article 33 of Regulations (EU) No 1093/2010, (EU) No 1095/2010 and (EU) No 1094/2010, respectively, conclude administrative arrangements with third-country regulatory and supervisory authorities to foster international cooperation on [ICT third-party risk](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/dora/ict-third-party-risk) across different financial sectors, in particular by developing best practices for the review of [ICT risk](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/dora/ict-risk) management practices and controls, mitigation measures and incident responses.
2. The ESAs shall, through the [Joint Committee](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/dora/joint-committee), submit every five years a joint confidential report to the European Parliament, to the Council and to the Commission, summarising the findings of relevant discussions held with the third countries' authorities referred to in paragraph 1, focusing on the evolution of [ICT third-party risk](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/dora/ict-third-party-risk) and the implications for financial stability, market integrity, investor protection and the functioning of the internal market.

## 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-v-managing-ict-third-party-risk/article-44-international-cooperation.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.
