Bill,
I saw nothing on your web page. I, and many others, may be
interested if the agenda was made available.
Thx,
Joe

Subject: RE: R&TTE Directive - Transitional periods
Based on the emails of the past couple of days, this seems like a genuine
public service -
For anyone's interest - Intertek Testing Services and NMi (Netherlands
Measurement Institute) are holding a seminar on the new RTTE Directive in
Boxboro, MA on 12/14/99. The program may clear up some confusion that
exists among practitioners. If you would like more information, contact me
at the numbers below.

John,
Thanks for the info and the pointer to TAPC which I also find a valuable
source
of such info.
Your summary adds detailed support to the information I was given at a BABT
seminar on Oct 5 (emc-pstc posting 15 Oct), but which was disputed in this
forum. Are the UK out on their own in disallowing new approvals to the old
regime during this transition period?

Subject: R&TTE Directive - Transitional periods
Hi folks
I have just been sent a copy of the draft UK Statutory Instrument on the
above, together with a copy of the DTI consultative document - these appear
to clarify the previously much-debated subject of the proposed transition
periods and I thought various people might like to know.
These documents are available at the following website: "www.tapc.org.uk"
in both Word97 & pdf format.
The consultative document goes into some detail on the subject of
transition periods, and the critical statements are given in the following
sections:
"Summary of proposals
4 The existing UK and European type approval regimes for radio equipment
and telecommunications terminal equipment will end on 7 April 2000.
Manufacturers can place equipment on the market which conforms to the new
regime from 8 April 2000. Notwithstanding this, equipment approved before
this date may continue to be placed on the market until 7 April 2001.
Thereafter all individual items of equipment placed on the market must
conform to the requirements of the new regime."
AND
"Transitional provisions (draft regulation 8)
18 This regulation allows that, despite the ending of UK and European type
approvals regimes for radio equipment and telecommunications terminal
equipment on 7 April 2000, individual items of apparatus approved under
these regimes can continue to be placed on the market without change until
7 April 2001. Such apparatus first placed on the market by 7 April 2001 can
remain on the market until sold, and can subsequently be appropriately
installed and
used.
During the transitional period of 8 April 2000 to 7 April 2001, notified
bodies appointed under Directive 98/13/EC can continue to act in support of
approvals given before that period, for example by continuing arrangements
for production control, but cannot grant further approvals.
>From 8 April 2001, all items of apparatus placed on the market must meet
the requirements of regulation 5 "
The clear implication and statement of the comments in regulation 8 is thus
that NO further approvals to the old TTE Directive will be granted after 7
April 2000. Therefore previous comments about a 1 year transition period
appear to be only partially correct.
Maybe we should protest at this very short notice period - it is only just
over 4 months away?
What do people think - are the dis-advantages of the new regime out-weighed
by the advantages?
