That designation shall specify the exact unit responsible for carrying out tasks related to the application of this Regulation. Each Member State shall without delay communicate to the Commission and eu-LISA a list of those units and any amendments thereto. eu-LISA shall publish the consolidated list in the Official Journal of the European Union. Where there are amendments to that list, eu-LISA shall publish once a year an updated consolidated list online.
