Measuring Instruments Directive |
25th Jul 2005 |
|
| At the time of writing there is no sign of the draft Regulations to implement the Measuring Instruments Directive. There is no need to panic just yet, NWML still has time to get the Regulations out for comment, and once they are issued we will let you know. Implementation date will be 30th October 2006, which will mean that from that date automatic weighing machines having a European Type Approval will be legal for use anywhere within the European Economic Area including the UK. Members who are interested in exporting equipment to the rest of Europe, or importing equipment from manufacturers outside the UK should now be thinking about how to take advantage of the new opportunities that will be available to them from October next year. |
