<p>The present disclosure relates to a flexible cam technology in which a cam follower assembly (14) for controlling the operation of an internal combustion engine comprises a cam follower (18) configured to follow a cam (12). The cam follower assembly (14) further comprises a cam follower support (20) pivotable about a pivot axis (B) spaced apart from a camshaft axis (A) The cam follower support (20) supports the cam follower (18). An actuator (22) is interposed between the cam follower (18) and the cam follower support (20) and configured to displace the cam follower (18) in a direction perpendicular to the camshaft axis (A) which may facilitate varying actuation timings of connected components.</p>
