PEPP and PEPP saver information: item cannot be empty (S.52.01, EIOPA rule BV1203)

A blocking check on the PEPP and PEPP saver information template (S.52.01), in the annual solo (ARS) and annual branch (ARB) returns.

It applies to 2.8.2 returns too, the release for the 2026 returns, and Line4 Check runs it there as well.

The rule in plain words

Item cannot be empty

This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit. It runs only when your filing indicators mark S.52.01 as reported.
