The list mentioned in the first paragraph specifies, where applicable, State by State, those examinations mentioned in Articles L. 1131-1, L. 2131-1, L. 2142-1, L. 6211-22 and L. 6211-23 for which the accreditation, authorisation or approval conditions are not recognised as equivalent to those imposed on medical biology laboratories established on French territory.
