This consultation, published by the UK Department for Business, Innovation and Skills in January 2012, sought views on the European Commission’s proposals to align a package of nine Directives to the New Legislative Framework for Community Harmonisation Legislation for Products (NLF), and in particular the provisions of Decision 768/2008/EC. The Directives include low voltage, simple pressure vessels, non-automatic weighing instruments, civil explosives, equipment for use in explosive atmospheres (ATEX), lifts and their safety components, measuring instruments, pyrotechnic articles, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). The alignment of the nine Directives in the package with the Decision aims to address the number of non-compliant products that reach the market through improved traceability and clearer requirements on manufacturers, importers and distributors to co-operate with enforcement authorities. Deadline for responses: 6 April 2012. Document reference: URN: 12/550. |
